You had a very big transition between your current role and your new role. Can you
tell me about that?
There will definitely be a learning curve, but it’s one that I’m hungry to take
on, and ready for. This job actually integrates my degree (Economics), real job
experience (business/ product development) and the direction I want my career to
go (web development) together nicely, and at a time when I was worried that they
seemed to be diverging more and more.
In some ways, I’m not sure what to really expect, but I’m very confident that I
’ve got the tools to address whatever comes at me. At some point you have to stop
thinking about the safety you’re walking away from and realize that the potential
value of the risk you’re taking on – even just in the trying, let alone success
to follow – is worth much, much more.
How does the political presence in DC overlap with tech?
The government certainly has a need for tech innovation (and good developers!)
just like everyone else, and DC tech has done a great job of incorporating
government as a professional sector into the content of meetups, panels and
everything else because it’s such a huge part of the economy here. Plenty of tech
companies are trying to serve the government, so there’s definitely a connection
in that way as well as others. It’s easy to complain and think of government in
terms of popular caricature of big bureaucracy, and for good reason, plenty of the
time, but how will that ever change unless innovative people get involved and try
to help? That said, I’d love to spend extended-time working in both public and
the private sector throughout the rest of my career, and I think there are chances
to transition between both, especially if you know how to network and play your
cards right.
