I grew up in a working-class single-parent home in the Bay Area. This heavily impacted how I approach and analyze problems today. I had to teach myself to cook, ride a bike, swim, file my mom’s taxes, code, and engage others. You would often find me reading through my older sister’s textbooks or trying to feed a gopher with a carrot.
I spend the little spare time I have working on product and engineering experiments since this gives me the creative space to try & solve problems. I have worked on issues ranging from housing, finance to helping others find the resources and knowledge they need to thrive.
I’m happy to hear from you:
