Amy Bass
Amy Bass
Docker, USA
As a youngster, I had an early interest in computers. I quickly learned to disassemble and reassemble my family's Tandy 1000 without much effort. This passion only grew as I got older. In college, I became very interested in helping to bridge the growing digital divide and started a student organization, Tech Serv, at Drexel University. After college, I started my career as a data analyst but quickly found a career in Product Management. Here, I was able to combine my love for technology with my passion for improving the lives of others. Since that time, I've been a product manager in a variety of industries including MarTech and HealthTech. Now at Docker, I hope to continue on my journey by improving the lives of developers and helping solve their daily challenges.
