Kelly King

Biography

I’m a software engineer currently crafting the web at Tumblr. Before that, I spent eight years working on twitter.com, and have a passion for creating fun, user-centric applications that make the web a more delightful place.

I’ve been an organizer of JSConf Hawai’i, Write/Speak/Code, and WaffleJS in San Francisco. These experiences fueled my commitment to promoting diversity in tech and creating spaces where developers can learn, connect, and thrive.

When I’m not tinkering with code, you’ll likely find me crocheting or hitting the trails with my Boston Terrier, Freya—my favorite hiking buddy.
