My mother doesn't understand what I do for a living, so she calls me a "computer whiz." I mean, she's not wrong...

All I want for Christmas is for everyone to get their booster. I had to work hard to get the one I wanted last month, but am grateful to have it. I know so many sick people right now (including in my own home) and the care taking + fear that I'm next is exhausting.

In a city where I made $7.25 (the pitiful minimum wage at the time) to $13 (big money during my senior year!) per hour and a Stella at one of my favorite places to dance was $14(!!) the $1 slice must prevail nytimes.com/2021/12/21/nyr…

Despite today's news, here are my blessings: 1. I've got 3 shots in me and know that I am protected from serious illness and death. 2. Me and my partner got covid weeks apart so I was able to care for him and now he's caring for me. 3. I have supportive people in my corner.

Not surprised! I was thrilled to get into Georgetown for undergrad, but they would have required my fam to pay 2x what Barnard asked. I found my way to DC to tell them in person my parents couldn't afford that, even if they stopped eating. No one cared. wsj.com/articles/yale-…

After I was laid off from my 1st startup, I was given 90 days to buy my shares—a strange time to fork over $$! I'm glad I didn't buy, but I wish I had this level of equity education at the time. Learn the power of equity from my team Carta and friends carta.com/equity/learn/

I told my mom I had a sore throat and when I picked her up hours later, both of her pockets were full of sugar free cough drops for me 🥺🥰

All of the exasperated computer help was worth it... My 75 y/o dad now sends me the best emails. Today he admitted that he has no idea how to explain what I do for a living and offered my mom's suggestion that they tell people I am a "computer whiz" until I clarify.

#layoffs2023 #PSA If you've been laid off in the last few years in CA, DON'T throw away your EDD card. I thought my card was lost in the mail, but today I learned they never sent a new one because my old one (that I threw away in 2020) was still active 🤦🏾‍♀️
