Biography:

With over two decades in Media and Technology, Tinuola "Tinu" Awopetu has worn many hats! Content Producer; Product & Community Evangelist; Social Media Marketer, Blogger & Podcaster; Women’s Leadership Advocate & Coach. A serendipitous application to a coding bootcamp in 2017 led to a career pivot as a Software Developer. Her "technical happy place" is the frontend of the web stack. Tinu derives joy from teaching and sharing knowledge with others. She currently serves as the Frontend Curriculum Lead and as an instructor for Girl Develop It -- a non-for-profit dedicated to creating educational and career opportunities for women and non-binary adults to be empowered to take part in shaping the future of technology.Longer than her tenure in tech is Tinu's passion and commitment to self knowledge, creative expression and spiritual growth. She has organized workshops and given talks on personal development; studied and trained with Jungian psychologists; and holds a Master's of Art in Spiritual Psychology. She believes the most exciting frontier is the realm of Consciousness. Tinu lives in California, where you can find her practicing yoga; browsing for good sci-fi tv shows and speculative fiction podcasts; thrift shopping; and of course, meditating.
