Hi, I'm Emily! I'm currently the Associate Director of the Open Source Program Office at UC Santa Cruz.

• 👩‍🏫 I previously taught computer science at Berea College while working on my computing education dissertation
• 🧑‍🎓 I've been lucky to work with some amazing students – you can find a list of my current & past mentees below
• 🌱 I’m also a guitar builder and pickup winder, and I'm learning to play the drums! また、日本語を勉強しています 🇯🇵
• 👯 I’m looking to collaborate on making open source more inclusive & supporting diverse student engagement 💫
