My name is Andrew Paon.
I am a software engineer with a passion for programming.
I'm particularly interested in full-stack web development, developer tooling, and procedurally-generated art.
I work full-time at Applied Intuition, helping to make self-driving cars a reality.
In the past I have been a full-time employee of
Google,
Retool,
and rabbit.
This page is an attempt to document my sprawling and chaotic web-presence.
You can get in touch with me using andrew@paon.wtf.
