Saxophonist · Software engineer · Minneapolis

Sam Slotsky a.k.a. SaxyMofo

Greetings, earth creatures! 🖖

I'm a saxophonist living in the Twin Cities, but by day I appear cleverly disguised as an experienced software engineer. I'm a full stack polyglot specializing in NodeJS & TypeScript, but on most days I wish I could be writing OCaml instead. I love simplicity, code quality, and great user experiences. My favorite language is jazz.

It may surprise you, but I like other things too. Examples include chess, cycling, cooking, gardening, and experiencing the richness of life in its many forms, well known or unexpected. I'm one of those walkable city zealots and an advocate for social justice. These days you can catch me playing sax with Bobby J's West Bank Social Club.
