Hello 👋

I'm a passionate software developer who enjoys building systems with functional programming and Clojure(Script) and growing and maintaining an open source community.

About me, at a glance

  • 🌙 My current role: Senior Softeware Engineer at Crescent, where we use Clojure and Datomic to power a platform for companies to park idle cash, earn a great rate on it, and protect it with FDIC insurance.

  • 🏠 My previous role: Co-founder and Co-VP of Engineering at HonestDeed, where we used an event-driven architecture with Clojure, Kafka, and Kafka Streams to build reliable, easy-to-maintain systems. We also used ClojureScript for mobile and web app development, along with TypeScript for pure components.

  • 🔧 Co-maintainer of Calva.

  • 🌱 I strive to build better, more maintainable and flexible software and work with people effectively. I believe great software is built with good communication and people skills.

  • ⚡ Fun fact: I've been funded by Clojurists Together twice to work on Calva. During those funding periods, I added an expression-based debugger and static analysis features by integrating clojure-lsp.

  • 📖 Resources that have shaped the way I think about building software: Out of the Tarpit, The Mythical Man-Month, The Pragmatic Programmer, Release It!, Rich Hickey talks.

    [Clojure](https://clojure.org/) is an amazingly powerful language. Using it (and watching Rich Hickey videos) has changed the way I think about programming, and the way I code in general. Once I learned the basics of the language, which was a relatively quick process, I fell in love and couldn't look back. I hope this post can help others who are new to Clojure get up and running quickly and painlessly.
