Side Quests

I need somewhere to put stuff that isn't blogposts.

Books

If you find yourself wondering "what has Jessica been reading? Has she ever read the incredibly long web serial Worm multiple times? Wonder no more, now you can look at my reading list yourself.

I was only introduced to many of those books because of one of the finest book clubs in all the land, Cook Blub. You can check out our sweet website at cookblub.club!

Star Trek

Coming soon, I'm creating the ultimate guide for newcomers to The Original Series. In the meantime, you can check out a slide deck guide I made for a friend.

Friends forged in fire

I used to work at a place called 18F, where we did our best to give the public a better experience using government websites and digital services. It's a long story, but if you want to read about it we've got a whole website.

I co-wrote a couple blogposts about what makes innovation labs in gov spaces successful, how to conduct quality assurance work, and how to prepare for an ATO from the very beginning.

We've also got some cool guides and methods online, if you'd like to read about derisking gov tech, conducting user research, and much more!
