Technical Designer

Hired in the first round of hiring for internet startup Citysearch, Los Angeles. Citysearch was one of the very first online city and event guides, growing from a tiny startup to merging with Ticketmaster and having a successful IPO. Getting in on the ground floor of an internet startup provided great experience in a fast-paced environment alongside founders and seed investors. Key achievements include:

• Jack of all trades: A startup, especially in its early stages, needs people to be good at wearing several hats and solving a lot of different problems. There's no room for the phrase "that's not my job".

• Test, troubleshoot and report software bugs to developers

• Adapt to constantly evolving internet industry
