Welcome — Minter

Hi, I'm Minter

she/her · Canada

I'm a developer and former Site Reliability Engineer, and I help run a Canadian engineering company. For five-plus years I've worked where customers meet engineering: fixing hard technical problems, explaining them in plain English or Spanish, and building the tools that stop them from coming back.
