Ben Pate
Ben Pate is a humanist and technologist with hyper-fixations in decaffeinated tea and imported chocolate. He is also a veteran startup founder and CTO whose work is driven by a love of software and of the passionate early days of the Internet - when we believed that our new technology would open doors and level the playing field between the large middlemen and individual creatives.
Ben is now the creator of Emissary - a programmable ActivityPub server that enables developers to launch custom Fediverse applications in weeks, using only HTML and JSON.
He lives with his family in Denver, Colorado, and is a fantastic drummer, atrocious guitar player, and can't wait to get home for snowboarding season.
