Code Story: Insights from Startup Tech Leaders - S7 E17: Nora Jones, Jeli.io

Nora Jones has been in tech her entire career. She originally thought she was going to get into hardware, but was always focused on reliability and safety. She has quite the track record, in regards to companies she has worked for - Jet.com, Netflix, and Slack. She lives in Denver, and likes to get outside and do dangerous activities (post studying the risk of course). She loves to ski, and really digs Telluride and Steamboat when she can make the drive.

Through her time at other companies, Nora realized that the industry spends little time looking back on our past mistakes. She figured out that there was a solid market for people wanting to understand their incidents better, and started building something on the side, which eventually became her focus.

This is the creation story of Jeli.io.
