About

👋 Hi, and thanks for stopping by.  I'm Anders Ramsay, a software engineer based in Brooklyn, NY.

I'm the technical co-founder for a home maintenance venture, where we're working to simplify the process of home upkeep, electrification, and more.

In the past, I've worked at multinationals, design agencies, federal contractors, and several startups, where I wore many different hats, including Delivery Principal, Senior Software Engineer, Director of UX, Agile Coach, and more.

In my free time, I enjoy 🚲 🎾 ⛷ 🍷 🥘 🏋️ 🏃 and spending way too much time on Hacker News. 😬

Tech stack for this site

This site was implemented using Next JS with TypeScript and Tailwind. The blog was implemented from scratch and uses MDX files as a data source.
