Hi! πŸ‘‹ I’m Lina (pronounced /LEE-nuh/).

I’ve worked across the stack for a decade, on apps, frameworks, system services, and cloud servers. I like to β€œmake the whole widget,” from the platform to the user experience.

I love the craft of software engineering, with a focus on distributed systems, syncing, and storing user data. I have a knack for picking up new languages and platforms, but I have a fondness for Rust, Kotlin, Swift, C/C++/Objective-C, and JavaScript.

A few years ago, I led a project to modernize bookmark syncing in Firefox. I’ve also worked on iOS and macOS core services that power App Privacy Report and Shared Passwords and Passkeys. Currently, I’m rebuilding Firefox’s key-value storage stack.

I dropped out of an English degree to write software professionally, and love connecting with other folks from non-traditional (and traditional!) backgrounds in tech.

When I’m not at a keyboard, I spend my time running, cooking, and baking; reading poetry, novellas, and landscape histories; and exploring the beautiful San Mateo coast!

Thanks for stopping by!
