I am currently an entrepreneur + software engineer, building StartPlaying.Games (YC W20) with my husband and partner Nathaniel Tucker.
Before my entrepreneurial journey, I was a Product Manager building data solutions for AI-enabled products at Google. My past experience as a PM includes helping build Android's Internet of Things platform, launching new advertising products for Ads on Google Search (while I was on Google's APM program) and building out A/B testing and experiment infrastructure at Microsoft. Prior to becoming a PM, I spent some time as a Quant Trader at Morgan Stanley developing quantitative-trading models and electronic trade-execution algorithms for equities.
I attended the University of Pennsylvania, where I studied Econometrics for my Bachelors degree, Computer Science for my Masters degree and obtained a language certificate in Mandarin Chinese.
I enjoy playing the piano, exploring engineering and business problems and tinkering with electronics. Do reach out to me if you'd like to discuss any of those things!
I can be reached at spriha.tucker(at)gmail.com, or via the usual social media channels (I believe I'm the only one (so far) with the name "Spriha Tucker").
Thanks for visiting my site! I'll leave you with a recording of song I enjoyed playing on the piano. The ending was a challenge to get right, but I think the way it sounds makes it worth it!
