Paula started working part-time with imagiLabs in the fall of 2018, after graduating with a Bachelor's degree in Computer Science from New York University Abu Dhabi. After realizing she was more excited about her part-time job than her full-time job in Hong Kong, she moved to Stockholm in the summer of 2019 to join the team as a co-founder and Lead Developer. Paula has previously worked as a software engineer at Google and Goldman Sachs, and having often been the only woman in the room, is passionate about bringing more women to the tech table. Paula's responsibilities include overseeing and contributing to the development of the iOS, Android and web imagiLabs apps, as well as contributing to other areas of the company, such as the development of learning content and marketing efforts.
