The name is Zuri!

Here are some lovely tales about me!

😀 she/her

I am a Data Engineer 👩🏾‍💻 at this really cool place called the 🏟️🏟️🏉🏉🏈🏈 National Football League 🏈🏈🏉🏉🏟️🏟️!

I am an alumna from the illustrious ⚪️🔵🔴Howard University🔴🔵⚪.️

I am currently making magic happen with Javascript and 🐍 but I like to dabble in ♦️ and ☕️.

I like to talk about my side projects, techie hobbies and my experience as a black women in tech. You can check them out:

• Wonder Woman Tech Panel 2018
• Rails Conf Panel 2016
• K8s & <3Bre8ks: Introduction to Kubernetes
• 4C or Not 4C? That is the question...: A Talk on ML and Black Hair
• Greater Than Code: Episode 15
• Whats Working in Washington: Episode 237 "Tech talent comes from more than just a computer science degree"

I like to contribute to the world knowledge by writing tutorials on various topics in tech and community organizing. Here are some below:

• Beginner Friendly Introduction to GitLAB CI/CD
• How I Built my first Twitch Bot with Natural Language Processing

I come from a non-traditional coding background as well and I had an interesting journey breaking into the industry, you can learn more about my journey from reading "Code with Veni" Blog, Meet Zuri: Queen of Hackathons

I like to make an impact on the planet 🌍 by volunteering as a Technical Lead for Black Girls Code and Hackathon Organizer for Howard University School of Business Hackathon Bison Hacks. Formerly I was a Ruby on Rails Lead for Women Who Code DC and Leadership Lead for DCFemTech. I like to volunteer to organizations that are dedicated to improving the status quo of minorities and women in the tech industry.

I don't always code 24/7, I have hobbies like gaming on my PlayStation, 3D Modeling, Embroidery, Felting, Drawing and Billiards.
