ABOUT YITAYEW TEGOD
I graduated from Oxford University with a strong background in business economics and more than a decade of experience in coffee entrepreneurship, having run an independent coffee brand in Los Angeles and partnered with Blue Bottle Coffee. While building offline consumer experiences, I\'ve developed a strong interest in technology and systems building, and am actively pursuing a career in computer science and engineering, either in software development or technical support. I have excellent independent problem solving skills, business acumen, and user-focused thinking, and am eager to join a technology-driven, creative team that can turn cross-border experience into innovative value.
