Hi! I'm Jennifer Konikowski. Though I got my degree in Industrial Engineering, I currently work as a software developer. I primarily code in Ruby/Rails and React, but I've been known to dabble in Go, Swift, Scala, Rust, Java, Perl, PHP, and Python.


I lived in Atlanta for 7 years and was a founding member of PyLadies Atlanta. Soon after I moved to Boston in 2012, I founded PyLadies Boston, an organization dedicated to bringing more women into the open-source community in Boston. I was also a founding member and co-organizer of Boston Ruby Women. I moved to Pittsburgh in 2017 and have started All The Nerdy Ladies Pittsburgh.


In my free time, I try to stay active by running, usually around Frick Park and the East End. I can usually be found weightlifting in the morning. When I'm not working or exercising, you can often find me hanging out with my husband at the Independent drinking something fun with Super Punch. I try to read whenever I can.
