Hi there!

I'm Madi 👋 Let's be friends!

Last year (2024) I left tech, and I'm currently nomading around US mountain towns and finishing up my debut sci-fi novel.

If you're new here, my most popular article 'How a Lazy Bitch Like me Learned to be Productive' (lol) hit the front page of Hacker News and has over 40,000 reads.

I was the most RSVPed speaker at two conferences, and I was known in Austin for using growth marketing tactics in order to make IRL friends. For example, I created an in-depth guide to Austin real estate and said, 'if you like this, meet me for tacos.' That guide led me to making my best friends in the city, among other fun experiments I ran.

I also founded a weekly writing club that is still active, with ~20 members each week.

I'm an introspective woman, and this site is a raw look into my mind.

Thanks for being a part of my world! Let's get curious about everything together.
