Wesley and Kim talk to guest Gilberto Hernandez about both definitions of the word respect. All three share stories of an experience that many underrepresented folks share, unfortunately: their boss tends to micromanage or question them more than their peers who aren't underrepresented.
Gilberto is a Lead Developer Advocate at Snowflake. His unconventional career path eventually led him into tech. An electrical engineering and education double major, Gilberto started his career in transmission planning for the city of Houston, before transitioning into the public sector as a 7th grade math teaching in Houston's Fifth Ward. His passion for impacting education at scale led him to tech (Codecademy, MongoDB, Plaid, Snowflake), where's he's since been combining his passion for education with his love for data and developer infrastructure. In his free time, he likes to BBQ (he is based in Austin, Texas, after all), grow spicy peppers, jog with his dogs, and spend time with his family.
