Featured Interview
Incrementally Refactoring Your Habits With Psychology
What is the focus of your work today?
I build developer tools at GitHub. More broadly, I make technology more inclusive and accessible for people who have traditionally been left out.
In your spare time, you illustrate data structures and algorithms with acrylic paint. Tell me more.
When I was learning about data structures, it struck me how beautiful some of them were. I really love the idea of taking something that's generated by computer and trying to reproduce that by hand - both to get it into my head and to show my vision of how this can work to other people. I made a whole series. I was already a painter and artist learning about computer science, this inspired me to see if I could marry fine art and computer science.
