Front-end developer. In my spare time I like to make Trello Power-Ups ✨

Sydney, Australia Joined on May 21, 2019 https://www.emgoto.com

Work

Front-end developer at Atlassian

This year I'm focusing on consistently writing new blogs. Let me know how I'm doing!

I write a lot of React at work (with Redux and Flow).

I've created a Trello Power-Up for habit tracking called Streak, which you can check out here:

I've also made a Gaming Backlog Power-Up that integrates with Steam:
