Reflections:



Jessica L.: You are way more evolved and valuable if you can work with humans and write code.



Jenn: We have to actively be learning how to interact with people in the industry and people entering the industry.



Jamey: When you’re mad, approach it offline.



Jessica K.: Tell people they’re great publicly, not privately! Make it normal to tell each other we’re awesome.



Mandy: Just be f*cking nice.
