My interview with Chief Scientist at bit.ly, Hilary Mason

Berlin Geekettes attended the TNW Conference a month ago and caught up with Hilary Mason, Chief Scientist at bit.ly, to learn more about her tech background, her non-profit hackNY and to seek advice on how women in Berlin can better support one another. 

Notes

Yesterday I attended a free Ruby on Rails workshop hosted by Rails Girls. The meetup and the mentorship were both richly rewarding. We didn’t learn in great technical detail but it was a good intro and jumpstart into programming. I’m fully confident that women in Berlin will dive in, continue to learn Ruby on Rails and potentially build powerful web applications in the future. Look forward to the next crash course hosted by several developers in the city (details to be announced soon on www.berlingeekettes.com). 
Danke to all the mentors, organizers and sponsors who made this happen. Your time and effort to support the ladies of tech do not go unnoticed. Exciting times ahead.
