Hi, I'm James Little!
I'm a software engineer and design enthusiast from Boston, currently living in San Francisco, Calif.
I'm currently working at Stripe, building in-person payment experiences on the Terminal team.
I started at Stripe after graduating from Bowdoin College in Brunswick, Maine, where I majored in Computer Science, worked as the Digital Director for the student newspaper, and played with robots.
I'm interested in how people interact with technology, and I want to make interfacing with the digital world simpler and more intuitive through the software I create.
