What's happening at AStuff?
Meet the team: Jonathan Klein
We love to take the time to introduce you to our amazing team. This month, we have the pleasure of introducing you to Front-End Web Developer, Jonathan Klein. He has been with our team for nearly two years and says it's been "quite the wild ride."

"It has been fascinating to see the company grow significantly, the technology continue to evolve and the way we go about our day to day work," Jon said. "Being able to manage a website like AutonomouStuff’s has been no easy task, but it is a thrilling one that I aim to continue to improve on. What I love about working at AutonomouStuff are the challenges I get to solve. Whether it be implementing something new on our website, developing a new tool, creating a new video, designing something or even just being able to brainstorm ideas with the team, it's always a pleasure working here. The people are the reason I enjoy coming to work every day. Coffee also helps."

We are very thankful for all Jon does at AutonomouStuff!

Giving back, holiday style!
'Tis the season for giving back! Since we love giving back in a big way at AutonomouStuff, we make an extra effort during the holiday season. Recently, we shared a little holiday cheer by providing toys, bath items, pajamas and warm clothes to children and families at the Children's Home of Illinois. These gifts went to boys and girls ranging in age from 2 months to 18 years old.

Our team also held a canned food drive and donated nonperishable items to our local food bank.

We love spreading holiday cheer and are proud to do anything we can to make the holidays a little brighter .
