<div class="resume-item d-flex flex-column flex-md-row justify-content-between mb-5">
<div class="resume-content">
<p>I started my career as a fresh grad entrepreneur, wanting to help people make a living with their passion. My startup journey took me through many challenges - from learning how to code when I couldn't find a tech co-founder, testing new ideas to grow the product, to moving to Silicon Valley for mentorship.</p>
<p>I've put my heart and soul into Learnemy but it eventually failed. Then I found a job at a startup and was fired 6 months after. Through resilience, a supportive community, and perhaps a sprinkle of dumb luck, I'm now the Developer Community Programs Manager at Facebook and the Founder of TechLadies. </p>
<p>At Facebook, I helped launch the <a href="https://developers.facebook.com/developercircles/" target=”_blank”>Developer Circles</a> globally and scale it in Asia. Within a year, I've built communities to reach >60,000 developers, equipping them with education and employment opportunities.</p>
<p>Outside of Facebook, I work on <a href="http://www.techladies.co/" target=”_blank”>TechLadies</a> - a community-led initiative for women in Asia to connect, learn, and grow in the tech industry. We are now a community reaching thousands, having taught hundreds of women programming skills, and helping tens of ladies enter the industry as software engineers.</p>
<p>I've spoken internationally at conferences such as <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kO66Y-501dc" target=”_blank”>DevRelCon London (Keynote)</a>, <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fHzXTVrGxj8" target=”_blank”>Campus Party</a>, <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zLwGJ3GyBxI" target=”_blank”>PyCon Thailand</a>, <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iZVAFrBzWKI&t=769s" target=”_blank”>International Women's Day by Jobs for New South Wales (Australia)</a>, Slush Singapore, <a href="https://youtu.be/qgUd_S3jFn0?t=9524" target=”_blank”>DevRel Summit</a>, <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wWnKqDl9Gcg" target=”_blank”>SRECon Asia</a>, Seedstars Summit Asia, <a href="https://www.facebook.com/elishatan/posts/10155565809037597" target=”_blank”>MaGIC Academy Symposium</a>, and <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GxSb7LLEgNY" target=”_blank”>RubyConf MY</a>. I was also featured in <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2015/05/22/how-sharing-failure-stories-has-become-a-global-movement.html" target=”_blank”>CNBC</a>, <a href="https://www.straitstimes.com/tech/learning-website-founder-was-code-illiterate" target=”_blank”>The Straits Times</a>, <a href="https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10155784288227597&set=picfp.633197596&type=3&theater" target=”_blank”>Her World</a>, <a href="https://sg.news.yahoo.com/move-over-wonderwoman-techladies-creating-next-wave-female-091919850.html" target=”_blank”>e27</a>, <a href="http://www.hnworth.com/article/2017/10/06/stories-of-resilience-elisha-tan" target=”_blank”>High Net Worth</a>, and more. </p>
<p>I'm based in sunny Singapore and aspire to also be a standup comedian. </p>

<p>I enjoy sharing my experiences at events, conferences, and schools around the world. I've delivered keynote presentations, participated in panel discussions, and moderated panel discussions to an audience ranging from 20 to 350 people of diverse backgrounds.</p>

<p>I've created a framework for companies and volunteers to build sustainable developer communities from scratch, and I can demonstrate how you can use this to design initiatives for developers.</p>
<p>I've spoken about this at <a href="https://noti.st/elishatan/z8MC09/design-thinking-how-do-you-design-developer-programs" target=”_blank”>DevRelCon London</a>, <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zLwGJ3GyBxI" target=”_blank”>PyCon Thailand</a>, <a href="https://youtu.be/qgUd_S3jFn0?t=9524" target=”_blank”>DevRel Summit</a>, <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wWnKqDl9Gcg" target=”_blank”>SRECon Asia</a>, and <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GxSb7LLEgNY" target=”_blank”>RubyConf MY</a>.</p>

<h3 class="mb-0">Tackling gender diversity in tech</h3>
<div class="subheading mb-3"> </div>
<p>Technology is meant to be accessible by all, it does not discriminate. I share why gender diversity is good for business and what we can do to make our industry more inclusive.</p>
<p>I've spoken about this at Seedstars Summit Asia, Google Women Techmakers, <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=isA6D9m7FpQ" target=”_blank”>CodingGirls Day</a>, and at <a href="https://engineers.sg/organization/techladies" target=”_blank”>various TechLadies events.</a></p>

<h3 class="mb-0">Overcoming a startup failure</h3>

<p>Failure is still a taboo subject. I believe that talking about failure help normalizes the experience and encourages people to take calculated risks. </p>
