Here's a little about me and my career thus far: I entered the tech industry as an early employee at Yammer, a (then) small tech startup, in 2008. Having a creative background, I started my career doing copywriting and content strategy for high-touch marketing campaigns on the web. I quickly realized that the fastest way to get what I wrote and created onto the web, was to write the code myself. From there on, I taught myself to build websites and fell completely in love with HTML, CSS and front-end design. Since my first tech job, I've worked as the first employee and creative director of a venture capitalist backed startup, the first female developer and designer at GitHub, a collaborative platform for developers, and a designer and developer at a small digital consultancy.
