Sam is a Google Developer Expert who works as a Developer Evangelist at Auth0. At Auth0 they're trying to make authentication and identification as easy as possible, while still keeping it secure.
After office hours Sam likes to play around with the web-audio API, and other "exotic" browser API's. One of his side projects is a library to add audio effects to an audio input using JavaScript.
When he’s not behind a computer, you can find him playing the guitar, having a beer at a concert, or trying to snap the next perfect picture.
