👋🏾 Hello!
My name is William Miner.
On a
good day, this is what I look like!
This is my home on the web.
I'm a software designer and engineer based in New York. I currently work for Slack, where I lead design teams focused on automation, AI, and line of business solutions.
Outside of work, I'm an avid gardener, runner, fisherman, husband, and dad. Find me on LinkedIn to get in touch.
