It's not you. It's tech.
I've spent the last decade working in tech and being the translator in the room when engineers and users need to understand one another. This is what I’m bringing to podcast format: conversations with friends in and outside of the tech industry, on why tech exists and what problems it is solving,
My guests in this episode are:
- Karlie Chalmers (they/them), psychotherapist, pediatric occupational therapist.
- Rosario (she/her), flight attendant, social worker and mental health advocate.
- Fabian Monsalve (he/him), developer, tech lead and the creator of TrueAlly.
