Sabrina Williams

Engineer

Personal: I grew up in Monterey, CA. I earned a B.A. in Philosophy and a B.S. in Computer Science from Stanford. I currently live in Redwood City, CA (Bay Area) with my dog (Clyde) and two cats (Walter and Eleanor). Professional: Software Engineer by trade. Previously worked on product teams at HP and Google. Former Director of Engineering and lead for multiple cross-agency engagements with the U.S. Digital Service (USDS -- ask me if you want details). One of the founding engineers at Devoted Health. Currently part-time at Devoted, part time on Betsy, which is my passion project to develop a language, framework, and tools to help folks learn to code. I don't really do social media. I have Twitter and LinkedIn accounts, but I don't use them, so don't be offended if I miss something you send me via those mediums.

Old Time Radio (30s-50s). Yeah.....they're outdated in some horrible ways, but they're still kinda awesome.

We should develop products that teach adults to code with the same standards we use for building most products: clean, user-friendly, easy to use, and compelling.
