Hi everyone! My name is Taylor, and I am based out of Atlanta. I am a full stack software engineer mostly writing typescript react and semifunctional (like Effect) paradigms on the backend professionally. I got into lisp with emacs a few years back, although I hadn't really tried writing any real lisp until last year. I'm hoping that clojure will be the best of both what I love about lisp and what I love about modern functional programming. Took me a while to try out clojure because of bad associations with the JVM, but I am really enjoying it now that I have started using it on personal projects. Looking forward to joining the community and learning more clojure!
