Hi, I'm VP of Community at the Zig Software Foundation and the host of Zig SHOWTIME, a live-streamed show that runs on my YouTube channel.

I'm also the creator of Software You Can Love, an in-person conference dedicated to celebrating the art of creating software for humans.

You can often find me livecoding and chatting about Zig on Twitch.

Open Source

Some Open Source software I created and maintain:
Zine
A static site generator written in Zig.
Zig's Autodoc Tool
The tool that generates documentation automatically for Zig projects and Zig's stdlib.
bork
A TUI Twitch chat client designed for livecoders.
zig-okredis
A zero-allocation Redis client for Zig that works both in blocking and async mode.
If you like what I do, I recommend sponsoring the Zig Software Foundation first and me second.
