Heya folks!

My name is Samuel, and I am a passionate programmer who loves pushing the frontiers of software engineering 🤩. I am a Master of Science with 1st class Honours, specialising in computer vision and programming languages, and I love to apply my skills to open source projects for the betterment of humanity.

I am the creator of Async and Falcon, and a member of the Ruby core team, where I spend a lot of time working on scalability.

Sponsorship allows me to focus my efforts on open source software. I also provide professional consulting services.

Feel free to ask me questions on Twitter or send me an email 😃.
