To think my first job here was to make @shopify “a thing” in Toronto. From sponsoring all the events, to creating and growing our own like Unite. And then being tasked with building product marketing from the ground up - this has been the thrill of a lifetime! 🚀🚀🚀

The consultants now have my phone number. I do not want to help your client snoop on Shopify or help you understand the basics of ecommerce. Make it stop. #shopifyalumni

This. If I see one more “freeing myself to mentor Black and underrepresented people in x profession” my brain will explode. How about you hire them and let them school you?

One thing I want to make super clear to white folks looking to help is this; We want you to stand with us not save us.
