About
Hi everyone. I have been with Product Hunt since the summer of 2015, working in many departments, from support, community, marketing, editorial, sales, and now as COO. Having started as the ultimate generalist, I have found my niche in startup operations. My toxic trait is catastrophizing. Everything might be going great, but my mind has already thought through every way it could blow up and made little routes out and imaginary lifeboats…just in case. My greatest loves are my dogs, Dele and Russell - and of course - great products. I love the creativity of this community and feel super privileged to get this front-row seat to so many awe-inspiring product launches every day. If you’re on my page - hello! Thanks for being a part of this community with me. 🤗

“No code,” but formulas are fine?
Gonna ask this just to be on the safe side. I m building with Coda, and not much can be done without formulas there. Technically it's still code, only a more expressive and declarative approach. In 3 days I ve made an app that would take me months to build natively. But I did it with quite a few functions, some for calculations but most for eye-candy. I hope I still qualify?
