I am the Director of Engineering at Buffer by day and a maker by night. I keep two side hustles alive: carpeta.app, a lightweight OS for freelancers, and wtc.studio, an e-commerce line of caps for creatives and entrepreneurs. Last autumn, I even squeezed in weekly rehearsals to launch a brand-new band that played to over 300 people. I have occasionally been published by LeadDev and shared lessons in engineering leadership roundtables. Ready State is the flow framework that makes all that possible, so you can finish each workday proud, not drained.
