Academically, I have a Masters’ degree in Electrical Engineering with majors in Computer Science. I am an Open-Source Dev Advocate and a Content Program Manager. I have a history of managing giant open-source community projects at scale.
Take, for example, WordPress — I was the first female WordPress Core Contributor from PK, and now I’m one of the lead representatives for the Core Marketing team where I interact with several core teams and make WordPress easy for over 41% of the web. I predict Next.js is the future of the web and want to use my experience with the WordPress community to help Vercel succeed.
Other than that, I am one of the mentors for Google Season of Docs, where I mentored a group of developers to craft dev-friendly content and documentation.
As a published author, I have written for popular web magazines/blogs like DigitalOcean, Scotch.io, Envato Tuts+, SitePoint, CreativeMarket, TorqueMag, and TheDevCouple. My work has been featured in white papers, books, on sites like SmashingMagazine and CSS-Tricks. Links below.
I have a consolidated experience of over 11 years with writing developer-focused content, API reference documentation, tutorials, guides, blog posts, and other instructional design work. A huge part of who I am and what I do comes from my passion for teaching and community engagement. I am one of the founding members of the Node.js Foundation’s Community Committee Outreach initiative.
Two weeks ago, I was announced as one of the first few DigitalOcean Navigators where I am helping DO with my content and dev community work.
I’ve helped document some of the largest open-source software, and my docs have been read by millions of developers. I love improving the developer content and docs experience, and that’s what I do — also why I wrote the Writy.io book (the video course is launching soon).
To sum it up, I have three major sides to my portfolio: open-source contributions, writing developer-focused content, and dev community advocacy. I know how to do open-source right. I regularly contribute to the WordPress core, and I know for a fact that you folks strongly believe in these contributions.
One of my open-source projects, create-guten-block (similar to create-react-app but for WP) toolkit, received the A8C Design Award for the “Best Solutions” category. I not only led this project but also documented it as per the needs of the WP Community. I can bring all this experience to the table while working with you folks.

Being an engineer with technical experience of more than a decade, I am currently interviewing for job positions at a couple of awesome cloud companies like Vultr, PicsArt, StackOverflow, and a couple of FAANG companies. I’d be very much interested in pursuing the job role at Vercel, which suits best my skillset.
Before I forget, I’ve attached my resume to this email. Fun fact my resume is based on React components, and I use Next.js for it.
Looking forward to hearing back from you.
