Career

In 2010, she co-founded hackNY, a non-profit that helps integrate engineering students into the startup community in New York City.[3] After a few years working as Chief Scientist at bitly,[7] she quit the company in 2014 and co-founded Fast Forward Labs with Micha Gorelick, another former bitly data scientist.[8][9] She continues working as a data scientist at Accel.[10][11] On September 7, 2017, Cloudera announced that it had acquired Fast Forward Labs, and that Mason would become Cloudera's Vice President of Research.[12]

Fast Forward Labs
