About Me

I’m a software developer and a partner at Reflective Software, a two-person software product and consulting company specializing in Elixir, Phoenix, and Rust. We are currently looking for our next client. Read more about Reflective Software here, and please get in touch at contact@reflective.dev if you would like to talk about working together.

My open source is at github.com/eahanson and github.com/synchronal. You can learn more about sponsoring my open source work at github.com/sponsors/reflective-dev

I’m also a co-founder of the Golden Gate Elixir meetup, and a relatively new co-organizer of the Erlang & Elixir SF meetup.
