🎩 Hello! Saluton! Salve!
I am a software engineer and community builder who uses technology to unite people and help them discover the answers to their questions through meaningful and delightful interaction. I speak at conferences and have run conferences and conventions since I was 17 years old.
I keep some projects here on GitHub but also some on GitLab. I might have something on Sourcehut with old stuff on BitBucket and really old stuff from my early development days on Launchpad.
Organizations I'm involved in:
- Code & Supply (gitlab & github), Pittsburgh's premiere community of software professionals that hosts meetups, conferences like Abstractions and Heartifacts, and runs a co-working space oriented toward software folks.
- Community Internet Solutions (neé Meta Mesh Wireless Communities) (github), a Pittsburgh-based non-profit bridging the digital divide by bringing Internet connectivity to those without it
- Code & Supply Scholarship Fund (gitlab), a non-profit that helps folks attend and speak at conferences in Pittsburgh and beyond
- Homebrew (github), the missing package manager for macOS (and Linux)
Want to help me out? Join C&S to keep the lights on as an individual or corporate member or sponsor us, donate to CSSF to fund tech conference travel grants, or donate to MMWC to help us build a more connected community. You could also sponsor me on GitHub sponsors and I'll put the money toward one of these or several other organizations I care about.
Cheers!
