Diversity reboot

Courtney has been in the industry for over 15 years, having worked in tech via media, academia, and medicine before arriving at Elastic in 2020. Courtney's journey began in her hometown of Memphis, Tennessee, by hardware hacking on personal computers and lurking on Prince message boards. She loves finding unusual and elegant ways to solve problems (both human and technical alike), building tools, developing workflows, and building infrastructure almost as much as she enjoys finding ways to keep activists safe organizing online. When she’s away from her desk, she can be found running, hiking, or biking around Philadelphia, cooking, lifting weights, gardening, knitting, building keyboards, or singing karaoke duets with her wife.
