We’re Celebrating our Adafruit Team this #LaborDay – Eloise from Gathering!
Here’s what Eloise has to say:
Greetings! My name is Eloise and I work as the Gathering Personnel Lead handling scheduling, hiring and tea drinking. You can only guess which is the most important of the three.
I’ve only been at the ‘fruit since February of this year but after working in hospitality for ten years I can confidently say that coming here was one of the best decisions I’ve made – I’m beyond thankful for the opportunity!
Limor and Phil have created an incredibly supportive environment from the interview process onward and I feel lucky to be immersed in it. I’ve never experienced the golden trifecta of feeling appreciated for my work, making a livable wage and having a bomb ass work/life balance. Now if only I could bring my cats to work…
Adafruit publishes a wide range of writing and video content, including interviews and reporting on the maker market and the wider technology world. Our standards page is intended as a guide to best practices that Adafruit uses, as well as an outline of the ethical standards Adafruit aspires to. While Adafruit is not an independent journalistic institution, Adafruit strives to be a fair, informative, and positive voice within the community – check it out here: adafruit.com/editorialstandards
Stop breadboarding and soldering – start making immediately! Adafruit’s Circuit Playground is jam-packed with LEDs, sensors, buttons, alligator clip pads and more. Build projects with Circuit Playground in a few minutes with the drag-and-drop MakeCode programming site, learn computer science using the CS Discoveries class on code.org, jump into CircuitPython to learn Python and hardware together, TinyGO, or even use the Arduino IDE. Circuit Playground Express is the newest and best Circuit Playground board, with support for CircuitPython, MakeCode, and Arduino. It has a powerful processor, 10 NeoPixels, mini speaker, InfraRed receive and transmit, two buttons, a switch, 14 alligator clip pads, and lots of sensors: capacitive touch, IR proximity, temperature, light, motion and sound. A whole wide world of electronics and coding is waiting for you, and it fits in the palm of your hand.
Have an amazing project to share? The Electronics Show and Tell is every Wednesday at 7pm ET! To join, head over to YouTube and check out the show’s live chat – we’ll post the link there.
