After I decided to leave PreSnap, I joined the GTM team at Vercel. One of my biggest frustrations while working on PreSnap was being a non-technical founder. Once I finished the designs, I often found myself waiting on engineering cycles and feeling stuck, unable to contribute to the technical side of the work.

When I moved to San Francisco, I made the decision to teach myself how to code. Part of the reason I joined Vercel was to surround myself with some of the best engineers in the world and learn from them. We had used Vercel at PreSnap, and I was drawn to the company's amazing branding and the impact it had on the startup community.

I started at Vercel as an SDR, and after eight months, I began piloting a new role helping build out Vercel’s startup program. As part of that pilot, I built automations to help with prospecting startups.
