I’m adaptable and can wear many hats. One thing holds true no matter what—I trust my gut and use my intuition in my professional life. I am a:— Developer advocate. Yes, it’s a job title, but for me—it’s more than that! I’ve spent years working alongside developers and have seen their struggles. I seek to remove friction from their day-to-day lives. I understand that gaining developer adoption of your product requires soliciting developer feedback and integrating it back into the product. I facilitate that two-way conversation. — Quality champion. I care about end users and want them to have an exceptional experience. I care equally about business stakeholders and can translate their vision into language developers can implement. I’m passionate about CI/CD because solid, automated processes make everything run more smoothly. — Leader. I believe leadership is a state of mind, not a job title. I’ve been a leader in every job I’ve ever held. I hold a bird’s eye view of the development, product, and marketing teams of an organization—and I love them all! My unique combination of deep technical ability, strong communication skills, and business acumen come through in any role I hold. —Writer. I explain complex technical concepts in a conversational tone with real-life examples that are relatable to readers of different technical levels. I also have some creative writing chops and write daily to hone them!
