There I am in the back in the upper right side of the picture above circled in red attending Princeton MediHack (PMH), Princeton University’s premier medical hackathon last weekend. The 2018 PMH is the first at Princeton to connect medicine, technology, research, policy, and entrepreneurship. It was a great experience.
In its inaugural year, Princeton MediHack (PMH) aimed to build innovative solutions for healthcare problems with hundreds of other hackers. During the 36-hour event, students teamed up to collaborate on a project to be presented to a panel of judges by the end of the weekend. Experts in the field of medicine, including doctors and healthcare entrepreneurs, will serve as speakers and mentors.

What you are most proud of from the past 3 months in the Challenge course?
One, being chosen
I was always a little intimidated by JavaScript when I first started using it in 1995. The e-commerce startup company I was working at bet the farm on Java over JavaScript. They built their core product, a shopping cart, using Java not JavaScript. At that time JavaScript had a pretty bad reputation in the firm. And that sentiment about JavaScript has lingered with me all this time until I completed this course.
2017 Devember hackathon
Everybody should learn to code. If this sounds strange to you, try to imagine the people that fought against illiteracy, not much time ago. Probably their ideas sounded strange to many, back then. Nowadays, having quite won against illiteracy, we face a new form of it: code illiteracy. People that don’t know how to code are code illiterate. Code literacy enables a great power, a power of freedom.
Free Ruby on Rails Workshop at Blue Apron
I am teaching at a free 1.5 day weekend workshop geared towards introducing women to Ruby on Rails. The goal of the course is to help women build their first database driven website. In this workshop, we’ll take you through building a complete web application using Ruby on Rails. By the end of the day, you’ll have an application that connects to a database and reads and writes information. This workshop will be focused on developing web apps and programming in Ruby.
