Chore: Add more detail to bio/intro

[nelsonic]

At present you have a nice profile picture and basic intro:

Todo:

• Consider updating the aws-sdk-mock to TypeScript: [PR] Overall Typescript refactor dwyl/aws-sdk-mock#277 🧑‍💻 🙏 (paid!)

  • @nelsonic to add @SimonLab as colaborator/publisher on NPM: https://www.npmjs.com/package/aws-sdk-mock ➕
  • @SimonLab to publish new version once the TypeScript update is complete. 📦

  Note: current downloads per month of aws-sdk-mock: 420,095 x 52 / 12 = 1.8m/month 📈

  • Add repo to your profile pinned repos. 📍

• Add copy to the effect of:

I know it feels "weird" to self-promote. But ultimately if you want to move forward you have to do it.
You can always remove it once you've got the job you want. 👌

@SimonLab please LMK what your NPM username is so that I can add you as a maintainer. 🙏

Just tried to loggedin again with npm (for a while) and unfortunately I'm not able to access my account as it requires to "Enter One-time Password" which has been sent to my old dwyl.io email address.

I'll see if I can recover my account, otherwise I might need to create a new one

[nelsonic]

@SimonLab contact NPM support and inform them that @dwyl.io is your old work email address
and you need to recover your account.
They're usually pretty responsive with these kinds of things. 🤞

Merging this PR: dwyl/aws-sdk-mock#289 should get you on the Scoreboard 😉
Then it's up to you how much you want to contribute in terms of code. 🧑‍💻 ⏳
Meanwhile you can name-drop that NASA is using a package that you co-maintain. 😜
