Jason was most recently a principal developer advocate at Karat, where they worked to open doors into the tech industry by creating a more fair and predictive interview process. They live with their husband in the drizzly paradise of Seattle. Ask them about board games, community-building, puzzle design, queer theory, or anything you’re deeply excited by.
