Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness, and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts. Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men and things cannot be acquired by vegetating in one little corner of the earth all one’s lifetime.

This about sums me up.

My life summed up in one picture: wearing a Female Founder’s Alliance shirt and a Techstars hoodie while presenting about starting a tech startup by using Star Wars gifs at a Lesbians Who Tech event.
Podcast Appearance: UX Cake
Can one ever really say they appeared on a podcast?
I guess I can, because this one had a live studio audience! Listen in as I get to chat with Philip Hunter, VP of Products at Pulse Labs, and our lovely host Leigh Allen-Arredondo, head of UX at Spruce Up. Our topic for this episode of UX Cake is “Being in UX at a Startup“, but I would recommend subscribing to Leigh’s whole fantastic series.
I got to talk to a class about UX.
Nick invited me out to speak to General Assembly’s User Experience Design students and it was energizing and fun – full of great questions from a talented cohort, I look forward to working alongside them someday!
