I am an army vet 🫡, academic 🎓, catdad 🦁, OSS contributor and Engineering Leader at American Express. My recent OSS contributions center features and enhancements for the Shepherd project, a utility for applying code changes across many repositories. I have also contributed to popular projects such as Handlebars, Yargs, Hapi, and New Relic.

My main motivations for seeking sponsorship include covering costs associated with conferences to promote and grow adoption of Shepherd; paid tooling like Slack Pro, adding new features and enhancements (e.g., issue management at scale); and developing new Shepherd adapters (e.g., BitBucket, GitLab).

Some recent milestones include a major uplift of the codebase, improved documentation, increased test coverage, support for LTS versions of Node.js, and vulnerability remediation.

Your support will help me continue to improve these projects and contribute to the open-source community.
