Eli Perkins

I’m an iOS engineer in NYC, by way of Boston. I’m currently working at GitHub as a mobile engineer, working with Swift.

Sometimes I write about things on my blog. I’m a big fan of open source, whether it be in Swift, JavaScript, TypeScript or Objective-C.

I also love craft beer, coffee, and esports.
