Hey all, I’m Kasey. I was born just outside Vancouver, Canada. Moved to the Bay Area when I was 11 months old and then to Seattle when I was 7, so I’m about as “west coast” as they come. I went to UW for undergrad where I studied Electrical Engineering (embedded systems), but TA‘d for CS for 9 quarters, so I decided to do software engineering post-graduation.

I’ve worked at Microsoft, a start up called Karat and now I’m at Google. I taught high school computer science on top of my day job for 7 years and I am passionate about making tech industry opportunities available for everyone. Feel free to setup time if you ever want to chat careers in tech.

Don’t be shy to reach out and I hope we have a great quarter!
