I know @spottedliger said no leopard print, but I can’t resist. IT’S SUBTLE.

@webdirections @mobywhale Damn. I’m really disappointed we didn’t get a better showing. 🙁

@Rog42 Thanks!!
@stringy Thank you!!

@pwcc Thanks!!
@webdirections @pyko @mobywhale I honestly can’t think of much more you could’ve done. 🙁 I know I sound like a broken record on this topic.
@webdirections @pyko @mobywhale I’ve harangued every female dev I know. It’s so frustrating. (I love to speak – I just don’t code anymore!)
@gilmae @webdirections @pyko @mobywhale Hahaha, crappy PHP doesn’t count! (Ask Peggy.)

See that app at about 8 seconds into the commercial? That’s Canva. 🙂

The cat is officially out of the bag. Today is my last day at Mi9, and in one month I will start at Canva. Very excited!

I’m participating in this event as a mentor in a few weeks, along with my friends Jody and Lucy. Please share with any tech students you know in Sydney – especially women! They don’t have to be in a formal program – self-taught is fine.

Toeing the line again…
A few years ago I ran a marathon. It was the hardest thing I’ve ever done, and I always try to remember that when I start any new endeavour. “How hard could it be? I ran a damn marathon.” Right?
Today was also my last day at Mi9. I’ve been there just shy of two years. I was the Iteration Manager and then the Director of the 9Jumpin team, and I had the privilege of working with an absolutely amazing group of people. Staying with them would have been easy. Instead I’m gearing up for yet another challenge, and it’s completely different.
In one month, I’m starting a new role at Canva. They’ve gotten a lot of press lately. I don’t even have a real title – I’m an “all rounder,” and I’m going to do my best to help them achieve their goals. I won’t be managing a team. I won’t be writing specs. It’s pretty scary. It’s also incredibly exciting. I haven’t toed the line for a real challenge in a long time. I can’t wait to get going.
And of course, I used Canva to make the header graphic…
