Big Tech Company

Big Tech Company is a satirical website I created in Feb 2023 based on experiences and observations from over a decade of working in and following the tech industry. My goal with this project is to point out the excesses, tropes, and negative externalities that many venture-backed startups and large tech companies are guilty of. I'm not a pessimist, though. Any company has the ability to start treating its users and employees with respect.

I am a product/growth marketer, certified privacy professional, and AI ethics trainee. I also have 8 years of experience designing immersive experiences for consumption online and at large-scale events.

If you work for a company that wants to hire an ethical marketer for full-stack product/growth marketing or to develop your privacy program or AI product policies, please reach out. My email is [email protected].
