Welcome back, listeners. Today we are continuing our series entitled The New Notification Stag for Developers,

brought to you by our longtime friends and sponsors of the Code Story podcast, Currier.

As a reminder, Currier is developer infrastructure for product notifications, making it easier to deliver the notification

experience that your customers expect. Check out their product to learn more at courier.com.

Well, today I have another special guest on the Code Story podcast, Shreya Gupta, developer

advocate at Courier. Shrea, thank you for being on the show today.

Thank you so much for having me.

Absolutely. Before we jump into our topic today, tell me and my audience a little bit more about you.

So I, like you said, I'm a developer advocate here. I work on a lot of product awareness and

education strategies. So what that means is that I built a lot of product awareness and education strategies.

So what that means is that I build a lot of content, whether that's video, blog posts,

I host events, and just generally try to bring Courier to the right developers who are,

you know, working really hard at their jobs and just could use a notification's API to make things a little bit easier.

That's awesome. Have you been a developer advocate anywhere else?

No, this is my, this was my first job out of college. I've been here for a year and a half now.

Nice. Very cool. Did you study engineering technology? Tell me a little bit more about that.

For sure. Yeah, I did computer science and engineering in college. And to be completely honest, I hated it. I went to these classes with like hundreds of students and I found myself not, you know, being able to keep up with the rest of the class. And so within my second year of college, I started working with some of my friends to learn coding outside of classes, which slowly turned into like little study sessions,

which then grew into workshops. And eventually we started a nonprofit organization just to help

students like myself who feel left out of the tech world find a place in it for themselves.

I always find it really interesting. The folks that go into computer science

that end up not liking it, right, but understand technology can really do great things when it

comes to developer advocacy and areas like that. So kudos for you. Well, let's jump into the media
