Keith Sacenti
Life is about iteration. I've pivoted my career twice — from culinary arts to management consulting, then to software development. Each shift reflects my excitement to learn and evolve.
While I still love experimenting with new recipes, I now spend my free time improving self-built applications and spending time outdoors with my family. As we iterate, we find new passions that build on the same core values.
What fascinates me:
- Cloud security & wearable tech
- Telling stories through data
- Organizational behavior research
