Maria Shen is General Partner at Electric Capital, Maria Meeker exploring crypto. Formerly: gov + cs at Harvard, search technology at Microsoft, born in Beijing. I work with teams to start projects from scratch, whether it's enabling people to instantly factcheck Presidential election campaigns through their iPhones, designing the most efficient information memorization system to help students, or shaking up the Windows 10 operating system with new ways to search for things quickly. I'm good at bringing tenacity, enthusiasm, and organization to uncharted waters. Aside from work, I volunteer to improve education, rummage through Coursera and MIT OpenCourseWare for interesting courses to take, and tinker with arduinos.
