Hi there 👋

• 🔭 I’m currently working as a manager of data operations SRE @ Mozilla (as of August 2020)
  • previously, manager of cloud engineering @ Mozilla
• 🌱 I’m currently learning type theory + abstract algebra
• I'm interested in:
  • distributed systems
  • programming language theory + functional programming
  • operating system internals
  • infrastructure automation
  • diversity + inclusion + equity
  • polyglot software development
    • I ♥️ Haskell, Erlang, F#, OCaml / SMLNJ, Racket, Idris
    • I use Bash, Rust, Python, Terraform, Go, Swift, C, C++, Java, etc.
  • parsing + compilers
  • math + 3d geometry
• Remote worker since 2012
• 💬 Reach out to me if you're looking for a mentor. In particular, I'm looking to use my energy to help BIPOC, Latinx, LGBTQIA+ folks and women in tech. I can be reached at my github username at protonmail.com. I realize that your professional experience won't be the same as mine, but I'd like to help however I can.
