ABOUT VANESSA CARDONA KEPP
When I started college I thought I was going to be a Broadway star. After that dream faded, I thought I would be an editor at a major fashion magazine. Now here I am, leading Product teams in tech, having fun, and building some awesome new experiences. You can see my zig-zag career journey below. And let me tell you, it\'s because of all of the zigs and zags that I\'m so good at my job. Before you read further, here\'s a summary of how I like to work; I love to work at the intersection of digital experiences and human interactions. I believe the magic is in the team. I lead with my gut and seek to disprove myself with data. I believe everyone is a customer. I take my work seriously, but not myself. I believe in people over profit. I\'m an advocate for more BIPOC and Moms in tech. I love my work, but it doesn\'t define me. Other things I\'m interested outside of my 9 to 5; Femtech and Famtech, angel investing, mentoring women of color, buying more books than I have time to read, creating communities, and designing a warm and inviting recently-built home for my family.
