Hi there!
I'm originally from Miami, Florida, moved up to Boston, MA in 2011, and moved across the country to Berkeley, CA in 2019. Before you ask - yes, I miss the Miami sun, speaking Spanish wherever I go, and Cuban food! I studied sociology and anthropology at Wellesley College. I also learned a lot about how to apply a more human-centric perspective when building meaningful technical solutions. Iām a social scientist, and as such, I approach my study of human behavior with empathy and curiosity. I challenge assumptions with the goal of untangling cultural complexities and deepening my understanding of the problem. Throughout my career, I've been constantly pursuing interesting problems to work on and surrounding myself with really talented people to work on them with. Along the way, I've also worked at my college radio station as a DJ, served as captain of my varsity soccer team as a goalkeeper, collected hundreds of vinyl records, and coached a bunch of young female soccer players in my town. I spend some time on weekends pouring natural wine, most recently at Ordinare Wine in Oakland, CA, but I was a member of the founding team at Rebel Rebel in Somerville, MA. I've also taught myself how to make linocut prints and take decent photographs.
