Our Core Values

  1. Stay curious and ask questions.
  2. Practice anti-racism, diversity, equity, and inclusion daily.
  3. Never stop learning and growing.
  4. Focus on quality over quantity.
  5. Leverage tech for good and do no harm.

Our Vision

Build tech for the good of the community.

Our Mission

Create inclusive, equitable, and accessible tech.

Our Approach

We use industry best practices and academic research foundations for discovery, design, outcomes, and success across all platforms. We work with tech companies to create intentional businesses that care – about their impact on communities, society, and the world. Nerdy Diva was founded in 2018 and serves clients across the US and globally.

Our DEI Statement

At Nerdy Diva we put Anti-Racism, and Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) principles at the forefront of our work. We are always looking for ways to alleviate representative harm and allocative harm in tech, from reducing our use of harmful language in APIs and documentation, to highlighting and providing employment opportunities to underrepresented groups in tech through summer internships and contract work, to working with national partners on projects that serve diverse communities. The mission of Nerdy Diva speaks to the shared desire of our allies and supporters in supporting social justice through powerful action. We are here to make an impact with the access, opportunity, and services we provide. While short term results are good, we look at the long term impact and strategies from DEI experts in industry and academia for ways to continuously improve. A portion of Nerdy Diva’s proceeds supports charitable donations and angel investing in diverse businesses and internship opportunities for underrepresented people in tech.

Our ESG Statement

We are always looking for new ways to grow sustainably and equitably, from reducing our carbon footprint through the use of coworking spaces in LEED certified buildings, to highlighting and providing employment opportunities to underrepresented groups in tech, to working with national partners to grow an inclusive tech space. The mission of Nerdy Diva speaks to the shared desire of the world to combat climate change. We are here to make an impact with the services we provide. While short term results are good, we look at the long term impact of Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) industry practices and search for new ways to improve.
