Andrew Mason is a tool builder who is passionate about developer communities and mentoring. Though still early in his career, he’s had a lot of experience on all levels of the stack, as well as dev advocacy and community management. In mid-2019, he met Nate Hopkins through The Ruby Rogues podcast, which led to his early involvement in StimulusReflex. He would later join Nate Hopkins at CodeFund, where he rose to become the primary developer until the platform was forced to shutdown. It was at CodeFund with Nate, Eric Berry, and Justin Dorfman where he discovered his passion for open source software and working in public.

He is a core member of StimulusReflex, founding member of BridgetownRB, and even fixed a typo in Ruby. In his free time, Andrew enjoys making digital art, collecting tools, pairing with juniors, and surfing.
