Eli Holderness

Eli is a freelance developer advocate, software developer, technical writer, and speaker for hire. They run workshops, build things, and tell cool stories.

Since being released back into the wild from university 7 years ago, they've bounced around a few different industries within tech - telecoms software, analog circuit design, and cloud computing to name a few. They love learning new things and teaching other people about them. When not coding or conferencing, they can be found at home hanging out with their cat, knitting, and trying to stop their cat from eating their knitting.
