JUSTIN SHAW · PARK CITY, UTAH

A mind of my own.

AI, technology, and a life shaped by curiosity. I’m Justin Shaw. Here’s a little of how I see things.

A LITTLE ABOUT ME

I like to figure things out.

I’m Justin Shaw, from Park City, Utah. I’m quiet by nature, independent in how I think, and drawn to questions that take a little work to answer.

I’m largely self-taught. I follow an interest, read closely, try things, and keep going until I understand them better. I value the freedom to make my own choices and the simplicity of knowing what matters to me.

Think for yourself.

Listen to different views. Look at the evidence. Decide what makes sense.

Make it useful.

The best part of learning something is finding a way to use it.

Keep showing up.

Progress usually comes from small things done consistently.

WHAT I’M INTO

There’s always another question.

These are the subjects I can happily spend hours figuring out.

01

Artificial intelligence

Trying AI tools, understanding their limits, and finding where they help with real tasks.

02

Technology & software

Looking at how software works, how systems fit together, and what makes a tool worth using.

03

Personal finance

Understanding credit, everyday financial decisions, and the planning behind greater independence.

HOW I LEARN

Start with a question. See where it leads.

I learn best when I can work through something for myself. That usually means a mix of research, experimentation, and a few attempts that don’t work.

01

Get specific.

Work out what I’m actually trying to understand before looking for an answer.

02

Check what holds up.

Compare sources and explanations. Pay attention when the details don’t agree.

03

Try it for myself.

Put the idea to work, see what happens, and change my approach when I need to.

AWAY FROM THE SCREEN

Plenty of life outside it.

Places to explore, music to get lost in, and a good meal along the way.

Somewhere new.

National parks, scenic beaches, and the chance to see a place I haven’t been before.

Something to listen to.

Music gives me a way to unwind and enjoy a little space from everything else.

Something with a kick.

Mexican and Indian food. Plenty of flavor—and usually something spicy.
