I am a data scientist turned data engineer based in Austin, TX. Growing up, I
had my heart set on marine biology because I was fascinated with the ocean.
Years later, I had to learn to program for an internship in college and
realized how much I loved it. When trying to figure out what I wanted to do in
marine biology, nothing ever felt as right as it did when I was learning to program.
It has been a journey figuring out what I want to do; spending a couple years as a
data analyst / scientist, I realized I enjoy building things the most. Previously,
I've been at Waitr (food delivery app) and Policygenius (insurance marketplace).
Besides that, I enjoy coffee, food, yoga, hiking, scuba diving, and traveling (especially
if it involves trying new coffee and food) with my husband, Dan, and my dog, Watson.
I love connecting with new people; feel free to reach out!
