Philosophy

Use your code for good. Read the source code. There's so much to learn from the source code of great projects. It's like reading the brain of a genius. You see their thought process, their problem-solving approach, their coding style. Itโ€™s a kind of knowledge you wonโ€™t find in tutorials or documentation. So dive into the source code of your favorite projects and learn from the best.

  • Former VP DevTools & DevRel Eng at RapidAPI โ€“ built DevRel from $0 to $272M funding to $1B valuation
  • Teaching is a genetic bug โ€“ both grandparents and parents are teachers
  • Shades of Purple theme has its own fan base (your brain literally invents purple when you see it)
  • Married to my best friend, Maedah Batool (Ex Vercel, Sourcegraph, and Google)
