Jesse Leite

Hello and welcome!

My name is Jesse Leite, and I am a software developer from Ontario, Canada. In a recent turn of events, I find myself at a bit of a crossroads with an exciting new job on the horizon...

Of course, this is a very bittersweet move after being at Statamic for the last 7 years. I'm very grateful for all the kindness that team and community have shown me over the years. That said, I'm beyond excited to be joining the SavvyCal team!

After having spent the last ~10 years of my professional life in Laravel and Vue, I figure this new chapter will be a perfect opportunity to try blogging again as I hop ecosystems and dive into the new Elixir + React stack. For example, expect nuggets about my functional programming learnings as a long-time OOP dev!

Outside of all that, I'm also a husband, proud father, Christ follower, and all-around flawed human being. I enjoy music, reading, gaming, and sometimes even going outdoors! I may blog about some of these topics from time to time, but it'll mostly be focused around software and dev.

In order to make things easy on myself, I'm going to treat this as a microblog of sorts. Instead of long posts and in-depth tutorials, I hope to publish more bite-sized thoughts and musings to keep things regular. Short and sweet!
