Andy Piper
I'm a technologist, maker, speaker, coder, and social bridgebuilder .
I'm one half of Forge & Craft, our studio where I spend time 3D printing, hacking with small circuits and sensors and contributing to Open Source projects.
I'm all-in on the #Fediverse and currently freelancing as (fractional) Developer Relations lead for Mastodon gGmbH. I'm also involved with various other ActivityPub-based projects.
I’m a supporting member of the Electronic Frontier Foundation, the Python Software Foundation, and the Open Source Initiative, and I am an ambassador for OpenUK.
I'm the co-host of a long-running weekly technology podcast (take a listen!)
I've been described as an enabler, a synthesiser, a connector, & as a community-builder.
