About
I am a Software Engineering LMTS at Salesforce in the Business Technology organization. For years, my area of focus was to maintain the company's customer order automation system, and build in-house developer tools to enhance productivity.
Since November 2021, I joined the Slack-on-Slack team and now create user-facing applications on the Slack platform with the aim of making our users' lives Simple, Pleasant and More Productive. I have also been tasked with building Java/Spring-based microservices to boost developer productivity.
I code in C (rarely), Java, JavaScript, Python, Ruby, and have built applications on Spring, Flask, Rails, React+Express, and now Next.js.
