S7 Bonus: From Counter-Terrorism Network Analysis to Mapping Workplace Connection with Shawn Ramirez of Mystery
Nov 10, 2022 · Season 7 · 30 min
Share experiences & insights for remote teams
Shawn Ramirez spent a decade as a political science professor, studying terrorism and strategic negotiations. Five years ago, she switched into tech, in order to make a positive impact, joining startups with great missions. She has created training programs, worked in AI, scaled teams, and dug into the data science world. Outside of tech, she lives in Seattle with her family, and loves all the outdoors things you can do in the Pacific Northwest.
Shawn tells the story of how her current venture started out as a dating service, but pivoted when the pandemic hit to positive events for remote teams. Being on one of those remote teams and consuming the events, she fell in love with the idea and joined the team, to build and deliver shared experiences with powerful insights.
This is the creation story of Mystery.
