Hi friends 👋

I'm a software designer & maker enabling people's creativity and ability share knowledge. Chances are you have probably used something I've built.

I want to help people create the things important to them—To empower them to create something themselves and feel the euphoria it brings.

I'm interested in local & open source software, and finding ways to reclaim our applications from the web and our daily lives from large corporations.

These days, I'm exploring the future of software at GitHub Next. In the past I've designed Zed, and worked on News Feed & Developer Tools at Facebook.
