Personal Wiki
A growing network of topics, people, places, and ideas organized like a modern encyclopedia.
This wiki maps the experiences, people, systems, and interests that shaped my time in Canada and beyond. Instead of being a blog timeline, it works more like an interconnected reference space: every page can lead to another idea, person, or memory.
Overview
Topics are grouped into broad subject areas so the site feels browsable, searchable, and easier to understand at a glance. Some pages are personal biographies, others are concept pages, and others are index pages that act like category hubs.

Using this wiki
Each topic page acts as a starting point. Follow cross-links between people, places, and concepts to move through the site the way memory actually works: by association. Category pages help you browse broadly, while article pages go deeper into individual experiences.
