A statistics graduate from the beautiful University of Washington who moved to San Francisco to be a part of the exciting start-up world. I love being a part of a company that has a large-scale goal, with passionate leadership and truly noble aspirations that are completely customer-focused. As of now, I can't imagine being anywhere else. I've had jobs all over the board, from the statistical analysis of mollusks to marketing, and now I'm extremely excited to be starting a new chapter in Quality Assurance.
