i'm riki, a bay area-raised 27 year old engineer. at the height of the pandemic, i decided to make a career switch from healthcare to tech and wanted to share my journey with others. i believe i'm not the only one who's gone through this transition, and my hope is that my experiences can help other people who may be going through the same things. i love tech, fitness, and all things lifestyle, including sharing my journey as a first-time homeowner, wedding planning, and more. thanks for letting me share my life with you and tuning into my digital diary!
