# About Me Hi everyone my name is Ismail! I'm joining Expel after nearly 4 years of working in a consultant role. I would describe myself as an avid technologist who loves to understand how things work! Since my wife and I had our first kid 5 months ago, "Free time" is a distant memory, but I vaguely recall enjoying mountain biking, running and woodworking! I'm super pumped to work/learn with everyone and solve some gnarly problems :) I'll leave you with this! ```bash ## if you need to install jq, i'm judging ;D curl -Ls https://v2.jokeapi.dev/joke/Programming\?safe-mode\&type\=single | jq .joke -r ```
