As one of the original authors of Athena Query Federation, you'll often find him lurking on the Athena Federation GitHub repository answering questions and shipping bug fixes. When not at work, Anthony obsesses over a different set of customers, namely his wife and two little boys, aged 2 and 5. His kids enjoy doing science experiments with dad, like 3D printing toys, building with Lego, or searching the local pond for tardigrades.
