I'm a software engineer and writer who works with JavaScript, Go, AWS and a pen.
Working for early stage startups and corporations like the Financial Times taught me a lot about building software. I share what I've learned about software design & architecture through my articles, books and newsletter.
I'm also passionate about storytelling, physical training, philosophy.
