• 🌞 Live in beautiful Oakland CA.
• 🎓 Engineering at Handshake, working to position graduates for success in the job market.
• 📧 Was a Staff Engineering Manager at Fastly, continuing to lead the Glitch team within Developer Experience. I get to see the next generation of the internet being made daily, it’s pretty awesome.
• 🥝 Was an engineering manager at 🎏 Glitch, switching between writing code and managing the entire engineering team. Lead the team during the aqcusition to Fastly.
• 💻 Previously engineering lead at NavaPBC, leading the team responsible for building the next generation of healthcare.gov and integrated benefits.
• 🙌 2016 Engineering fellow at Code for America, working with the Mayor’s office of New York to improve access to services in the city for the most at need. This work pushed me to stay in government related work!
• 😴 Was a teenager serial entrepreneur: Created Subeta, CharaHub (🪦), Valenth (🪦), Squiby (sold 💰) and even bought a few games.
• 🐶 Founded Subeta at age 13. Has existed in some form since then (at a peak of 30 employees), with thousands of active players today! My favorite pets are the Kumos (I ‘created’ - it’s just a dog) and the Experiment #333 a fluffy dog + squid.
• 🎶 Obsessed with pop music, Carly Rae stan forever. Held the record for most scrobbles of Evanescence for 3 years. The biggest fan of Britney Spears you’ve met.
• Ⓜ Love to travel to new places. Spent 2013 traveling Europe with a friend, a different city every week. I’ve been music festivals in rural Sweden, welcomed into the home of ambassadors I’ve just met on the train, and been to most Disney theme parks.
• ⭐ The perfect combination of pop music and travel is the ✨ Eurovision 🌈 song contest. I’ve attended in person multiple times, and will be in Liverpool this year!
• 👾 Used to play a lot of World of Warcraft. Now I buy most of the Pokemon games and don’t finish them. And I love strategy games like Civilization and Crusader Kings. I’ll pick up new games from God of War or Horizon Zero Dawn and take years to finish them.
