Helping frontier technical products earn developer trust and adoption.
Hi! I'm Ace — a Web Engineer, Staff Developer Advocate, GitHub Star, and Agentic AI Foundation Ambassador. I help frontier technical products become understandable, credible, usable, and adopted by developers.
I'm currently immersed in the world of applied Agentic AI, open source, and helping engineers & non-developers harness the power of AI in their workflows through engineering, developer advocacy, technical storytelling, open source, and community education.
Previously Block, CodeSandbox, Flutterwave, Ingressive, Hirefreehands (Propel), HotelsNG.
