@collcoll.bsky.social reached out to me on LinkedIn to see if I could have Amanda Brock on my podcast to promote State of Open Con in early 2024. I was swamped, but something told me that I needed to say yes. I'm so glad that I did! Catch Colleen's episode now! 🎧: buff.ly/8aTH4U1 📺: buff.ly/Zmp0B5A

Pink Ladies. #womenintech #pdx #pinkrabbit

DEI is the bogeyman for those who believe that if I’m gaining, they must be losing. The idea that everything would be fine if only white men ran the world is a weak argument—clung to by insecure men who can’t handle reality. DEI ensures women & BIPOC are looked at fairly IN ADDITION to white men.

With the first episode of their new podcast, Fork Around and Find Out (@fafo.fm), hosts @withenoughcoffee.com and @justingarrison.com come out of the gate strong with an hour-and-a-half interview featuring @kelseyhightower.com. Read more: fieldtheories.blog/posts/forkin...

Copping out.🎃 #happyhalloween

It seems like everyone is looking for new opportunities and I’m excited to see how the BlueSky community shows up for all of us 🥹 I’m also looking for a new gig in the Product Space so if your company is hiring please reach out! 🫶🏾

Fijne Koningsdag! #canals #fijnekoningsdag👑👱🏻‍♂️🇳🇱 #kingsday🇳🇱 #orangeisthenewblack #canalcruiseamsterdam

Say the compliment out loud. I have some coworkers I really dig working with. I think that every time we do projects. So SAY it. “I really enjoy working with you! We always get it done and it’s always super collaborative!” Don’t just THINK the compliment. Say it. Then tell their boss.

If you’ve got any leads for PM roles in the developer tools or design tools space…I’m looking. My company was not immune to the current tech climate and I’m feeling a bit of whiplash having relocated less than 4 months ago. Was not expecting this today.

Skywalker, I am. Thank you @amir.blue! 😘
