I am currently working as a Technologist for the Sovereign Tech Fund, making open source more sustainable. Previously, I have been a Senior Software Engineer at Microsoft and a dedicated maintainer of React Native for 6+ years. I'm also an vocal advocate for mental health.
Here are some of the things I've worked on as a software engineer and maintainer over the years:
- React Native, which enable you to create awesome cross-platform iOS and Android apps powered by Javascript.
- React Native Windows, what if I told you that we can use React Native for Windows as well?
- React Native macOS, and for macOS too!
- rnx-kit, some of extra and advanced tools made at Microsoft to make RN even better!
- React Native Test App, an iOS-Android-macOS-Windows React Native project without upgrading pains.
- rn-full-pack, an opinionated set of extensions to be up-and-running with React Native in VSCode.
Aside from code, there a few other things I have done:
- debug:mind, my YouTube series where I talk with tech people about mental health; on its website you can also find resources I collect around mental health and tech.
- Talks and Podcasts and more, in this page you can find all my talks at confs, along with blogposts and podcasts and etc.
- Job Hunting Resources, a GitHub page with resources to help people in tech finding jobs.
