Hey everyone, I'm Braden! 👋

I'm a full-time student at Yale who started off as a humanities kid, but fell in love with coding in my first year, and now study Ethics, Politics, and Economics with Computer Science. 👨‍💻

I seek to bridge the gaps between the two disciplines and focus on open-source tooling for creators that maximizes data ownership and transparency.

I'm interested in doing the most good that I can with my life, and it seems tech and policy are the most impactful ways to do this. I love building things, and software engineering seems to be the best way to scratch that itch (for now).

I've been on a resolution to make one commit a day for the past few years. Many of these commits are a combination between my various personal projects and an Obsidian vault where I take all my notes!

While I've been fortunate to have wonderful industry jobs, open-source software has a special place in my heart. It is liberating to code without worrying about profits and temptations to monetize users or profit from their data. While I make much less in open-source software, I aspire to make this my full-time career.

Your support through sponsorships is greatly appreciated, but please only contribute if you feel financially secure enough to do so. Your contributions enable me to pursue and develop projects like Whispering and other projects that I hope to help the community. Thank you for your time!
