If you’re looking for my resume, the current version can be found at brettterpstra.info, which is generated by Marked and built from a Markdown text version.

I work as a technical content writer and software developer for the Developer Relations team at Oracle. In my free time, I’m also a coder, podcaster, author, and web developer.

I develop and maintain a Markdown previewer for Mac called Marked 2 and an automation tool called Bunch. I also have over 100 open source projects, ranging from one-off utilities to full fledged command line apps. You can see everything I’ve worked on/am working on on the projects page.

I’ve co-authored “some macOS books” with David Sparks for the iBookstore and Vimeo. I’m currently working on a new app, podcasts, and maybe another book (it could happen).

I’ve been a speaker at Macworld, CMD-D, ALTWWDC, and a regular at Macstock. I’ve written for MacStories, Lifehacker, TUAW, and Macworld.

I had an interview podcast, Systematic, which is now retired but contains a wealth of great guests. I currently podcast my more eccentric (and often sacreligious) conversations with Christina Warren and Jeff Severns Guntzel on Overtired.

I can be found as “ttscoff” just about everywhere, including Twitter, Mastodon, and Github. See the icons above for everywhere else.
