Janice Trang
Hi, I'm Janice! I build websites that people like to use. I was previously at Twitter and Kijiji, where I shipped features used by millions and helped drag a few legacy systems into the modern era. After an intentional career break to recharge and explore, I'm back with fresh perspective and a lot of energy, looking for the next interesting thing to build!
