👋🏽 Hi friends, I'm Will.

I'm currently a design systems developer advocate learning to survive thrive with ADHD while juggling my three little kids. I love teaching other developers and helping them build a better career.

Here are some things I've worked on:

• Helping maintain Canvas Kit, an open source design system library that implements the Workday Canvas Design System. I focus most on welcoming new contributors and supporting our internal developer community.
• Growing the React Denver community through monthly events
• Speaking at several conferences like JSConf Iceland, CascadiaJS, React Rally, and Nodevember. I'm speaking again soon at JSNation about building your own JavaScript tools.
• Encouraging others to give their first meetup or conference talk
• Publishing a browser extension to add a table of contents to GitHub READMEs and Markdown files, before they implemented it themselves
• Writing a bunch of ESLint rules and reducing code review feedback
• Teaching people how to write their first JavaScript tool through talks, workshops, and a little website: astsareawesome.com

This was built with Astro, deployed with Netlify, and edited on CodeSandbox.
