I'm a GitHub Star and Senior Developer Advocate at AWS Amplify focusing on fullstack serverless web applications. I do a lot of speaking on React and Svelte, teach React and TypeScript at Egghead.io and write a biweekly-ish newsletter. I recently self-published The Coding Career Handbook to write down all the tacit knowledge that helps people succeed in our industry.
