Hi, I'm Ady

Welcome to the corner of the internet where I make things, learn things, and occasionally overthink all of it. Here's a little more about the person behind Pine Trees & Incense.

A Little About Me

I'm 43, married, and still find new things to be curious about every single day. In real life, my passion is behavioral health and medicine. I love teaching people, and honestly, I love learning even more.

My brain works a little differently, which explains a lot about how I jump from interest to interest, including this one.

Fun Facts

I can learn absolutely anything and everything. If I decide I want to know it, I will.

I have strong metacognition, so I'm very aware of how I think and learn, which makes picking up new skills weirdly easy for me.

I'm a certified jack of all trades, and honestly, master of quite a few of them too.

My Sims 4 Journey

I've been playing The Sims since the very first game released, on and off ever since, through every era of my life. It's been the one constant hobby I always come back to, no matter how long the breaks in between.

Recently, I finally decided to try my hand at actually creating content instead of just downloading it, and I'm having so much fun with it. Pine Trees & Incense is very much a "better late than never" passion project, and I'm excited to see where it goes.

Currently

Gearing up to post my very first YouTube video. Not gonna lie, I'm nervous. But I'm doing it anyway.
