Timeline
The short summary. I’ve worked for advertising agencies, I’ve worked for a development agency. I’ve built HTML emails, websites, lead development projects, given talks, run open source projects, created developer educational materials and advocated on behalf of an amazing community of developers within a Fortune 50 company called HubSpot.
I do my best to distill my learnings and share them to help others grow their careers.
