Eli Holderness

I’m Eli, a Developer Advocate at Anvil! I love making cool and / or weird things, talking about them, and hearing other people talking about the cool and / or weird things they’re making. In particular, I’m passionate about making the tech industry accessible and inclusive, and my favourite thing about tech is that it connects me to other people.

I’ve worked in a few different fields, from biotech to telecoms to analog circuit design, and I’m always interested to hear what problems people are solving with code (or with no code!).

In my spare time, I knit, crochet, sew, and protect my small army of houseplants from being eaten by my cat. I also sink a lot of time into video games, and spend far too little sleeping.
