Hi, I'm Hazel.

I'm a Fullstack Developer and Community Architect from Berlin.

The internet is my home.

And it's a wonderful place that I sincerely enjoy building projects in. I love working on open-source projects and have a weakness for communities and music.

Individuality matters.

Slowly but surely, the internet has become a crowded place. Every minute, over 500 hours of content get uploaded to YouTube. I help creative projects find their voice and stand out from the crowd.

My Work

Most of the projects I've helped build are focused on Discord, for example:

Aero

language-javascript
nodejs
language-go
discord
vuejs

git
gitlab

I work with a team of great contributors to build the most advanced moderation toolkit for Discord. Aero handles threats to communities in realtime and uses heuristics to prevent them before they happen.

    Coordinated open-source contributors to distribute tasks and work on community feature requests
