Hi there, I'm Sophia! 👋

🗺 Where I'm from: NYC (Born and raised in the borough of Queens!)

🏠 Where I live now: Long Island City, NYC

💼 What I do now: I lead CRM at Seated. We are a mobile app marketplace for restaurants, and we reward our Members for dining out. It's way better than credit card rewards back—you can earn anywhere from 5-30% back on your meal! When I'm not working, you can probably find me playing beach volleyball 🏐

😍 A brand I admire: Duolingo. The product is easy to use and makes learning new languages fun! I really admire their Progress tracker, Badges, and Daily Quest features that add Loyalty and help train users to come back to the app. The Push + Email reminders are sent in a timely matter and have clear call-to-actions. I'm currently on a 231-day streak!

🌎 Favorite trip I've ever taken: Hands down one of the best trips I ever took was back while I was studying abroad in China. I decided to take a chance and book a trip to Yunnan, a southern province of China, with 3 classmates that I had only known for 2 weeks. Our group of 4 ended up getting along so well together as we travelled throughout the countryside of China. We ate amazing food, made friends, talked to cab drivers in broken Chinese, explored villages and towns via bike/moped, and hiked the Tiger Leaping Gorge. It truly was an adventure.
