Things I've Done

I cofounded Midday Tech, recognized by the Department of Energy's National Renewable Energy Laboratory in 2021 for innovation in solar software.

I spent the 2020 election season as VP of Product at Empower revamping their get-out-the-vote relational organizing technology.

I was the first female engineer hired at Quip then became a product director there. I created and led Quip for Salesforce, accounting for the majority of new sales after a year.

I did my undergrad and master's in Computer Science at Stanford.

I gave talks at Dreamforce like this, wrote about embedded live apps and effective teaching, and built some interesting tools like this one and this one. I taught half a million kids about for-loops, while-loops, and strings through Khan Academy's computer science platform.
