Some winners of the TNW hackathon in the Spring of 2015 in anticipation of the TNW Conference in NYC. My humble contribution had the privilege of being deemed worthy of some recognition by the Todoist team. That is how I got my lifetime Todoist subscription.

Not about me, just about accellerators that are attempting to get more members of "minority" groups involved. Somehow, a photo with my mug on it got selected to picture what we're talking about when we say "minority". I take this as a compliment, glad to represent whichever "minority" group some may classify me as and continue to help break frontiers by doing whatever I do. Often I'm the only "black" guy at a meet up or conference; sometimes I'm one of a select few and we acknowledge each other's presence by a friendly nod; one day I'll just blend in as one of the many -- the day that no one will notice the black guy because that isn't a statistic highlight anymore.
