👋Hi there!

Thanks for stopping by on The 41 Project! I truly appreciate you taking the time to come here just as I’m starting out with writing on Substack.

I’ve always wanted to find a good niche to share more about life, and social media never really fit the mold, so here we are.

For a little more background, I’m Sean — a recent engineering grad from UCLA, but enjoyed the arts and creatives a little too much. I’ve always disliked the idea to being constrained to one area in life, hence why I’m trying to explore and document how I’ve been growing currently.

Currently, I’m….

✍️ Getting started with writing on Substack (you’re in the right place!)

⛰️ Hiking and biking my way through the Bay Area

🏀 Watching the NBA and trying to emulate in weekly pickup runs

📸 Photographing nature, cities, and the urban environment around me

🗺️ Spending too much time on Google Maps planning travel


My intention with The 41 Project is to be a place where I can document both in writing and in photographs what I’ve really been up to in a more authentic way via exploring San Francisco. Especially in the working rhythms of life where routine, mundanity, and the busyness of life get in the way, I’m hoping that this can be a platform of reflection, gratitude, and capturing life from the hurried nature of life, especially in the Bay Area.

Excited for this journey, and glad to have you along!
