About
My name is Sean McPherson (or seanmcp), and this is my personal site. Here I mostly write and mostly about software engineering. But you'll find articles and resources for my other interests and hobbies.
Professionally
Permalink to “Professionally”I work as a software engineer at Khan Academy building AI-powered activities for students and teachers like Writing Coach.
I have previously worked as a software engineer for Niche.com in Pittsburgh and TSYS in Atlanta. And before that I was a teacher at Gwinnett County Public Schools, AmeriCorps, and a juvenile detention center.
I graduated from Edinboro University with a degree in middle-level education and later The Iron Yard Coding Bootcamp.
Personally
Permalink to “Personally”I live in Pittsburgh, PA with my wife and two sons. I serve as a deacon at my local presbyterian church, and volunteer on the Wilkinsburg Public Library Board of Directors.
I watch, read about, and play soccer; and play board and adventure games.
