Chicago, IL, USA

I'm Brian Gisseler, a software engineer and systems administrator independently contracting from the Chicago area. I tackle complex challenges with well-reasoned, resource-efficient software solutions, ranging from shell scripts to larger system integrations. While I work on both open and closed-source projects, I'm particularly passionate about contributing to the open-source community.

Sponsorship will directly enable me to dedicate more time to these open-source efforts, allowing me to prioritize high-impact projects and incorporate community feedback. Your support will help shape the future of these tools, making them even more valuable to the tech world. Explore my recent GitHub activity for a glimpse of my open-source contributions, and consider sponsoring me to help drive their development!

Thank you for your support!

Your support helps me build robust, reliable, and efficient software that makes a difference.
