Looking for help with UX research for a new AI #healthtech project: https://balancerproject.com

Can anyone provide me with an intro to a psychiatrist, nurse practitioner, or other medication prescriber who has experience treating patients with #bipolar disorder?

I’d like to ask them a few questions about their pain points so I can build the best medication decision support tool. Willing to pay them for their time! Thanks in advance.

#PhillyTechWeek is coming up soon & I’m looking forward to participating in 3 ways:

1. Speaking about Comcast’s ongoing trial of GitHub’s AI-augmented coding tool, #GitHubCopilot, which I am leading, at a luncheon on May 10th

2. Speaking about the successes & learnings from running the 2023 #CodeForPhilly Launchpad (5-week hackathon) after the luncheon

3. Hosting the Launchpad Showcase at #IndyHall at night on May 10th, where teams will demo their projects after 5 weeks of hard work!

Take a few minutes to do something just because it makes you happy.
Recently started working at Comcast as a Technical Program Manager and learned that over 3/4 of our tech tools that we use across the company are #opensource. Neat :)

The Code for Philly 2023 Launchpad opening weekend was a huge success! This month-long #civictech hackathon will produce three new projects to better the city of #Philadelphia. So proud of my leadership team & me for knocking this out of the park!

If you were born in the U.S. it means you are privileged to have had citizenship to your country from birth. Only 17% of the world's countries grant this, leaving 10 million+ people in a terrible situation called "statelessness."

My brilliant and tenacious friend (and stateless person) Karina Ambartsoumian-Clough wrote an article about it. Check it out: https://msmagazine.com/2023/03/14/why-women-are-more-likely-to-be-citizens-of-nowhere/

Why Women Are More Likely to Be 'Citizens of Nowhere'

More than 10 million people are stateless around the globe, with no 'home' country to call their own—and women and children are most likely to fall outside citizenship laws. For
