Direct channels

👨💻 LinkedIn — good for recruiting conversations and professional introductions.

Location and availability
I'm based in the San Francisco Bay Area, California, United States, and work on Pacific Time (UTC−08:00, or UTC−07:00 during daylight saving time). I generally reply to email within a few business days. I'm not available for unsolicited sales outreach, link-exchange requests, or guest-post pitches, and those messages will not receive a reply.
