Interests

As a member of the disability community and engaged to a blind mathematician I have a passion for developing accessible applications. Aside from software development, I am a choral singer and carillonneur*. I have performed in over 20 languages and 70 concerts in 9 countries with ensembles including the Wellesley Guild of Carillonneurs, Wellesley College Choir, Young Women’s Chorus of SF, and Kairos Youth Choir. I am also developing a board game called Displacement with my best friend and enjoy crafting, cooking, yoga, and swimming. Additionally I am a huge nerd as can be seen on my tumblr, and enjoy writing—some of which can be read here.
