I'm currently an extreme programmer at Pivotal Labs in San Francisco.
I recently started speaking at conferences - here are some topics I've spoken on:
- Why JRuby, LA Ruby Conference, Feb 2013
- Building Suggestotron in Backbone, Women Who Code Lightning Talks, Jan 2013
- Bootstrap your Women in CS group, Grace Hopper Celebration, Oct 2012
- Getting involved in open source, SoCal Celebration of Women in Computing, April 2012
I earned my B.S. in Computer Science at Harvey Mudd College, where I became a CS major because of the department's initiatives to make CS more welcoming.
Because of my experience at Mudd, I'm passionate about getting more women into CS. I recently ran a conference workshop at Grace Hopper 2012 on how to start women in CS activities at your organizations.
In my free time, I like to crochet, bike, and watch prime-time TV.
