This end of a chapter also marks the start of a new and exciting one, but brings with it many emotions. I am sad to leave so many friends behind, and though I am sure some will stay in touch, it is certainly going to be different, without the cadence of work to bring us together. I am sad to leave, knowing I will not be part of this smart and passionate group of people who are building the future of Airbnb. I am also proud of the part I played in building the payments system at Airbnb, and improving the engineering culture here. I am happy to have been a strong advocate for diversity, and to know that others will continue on that path. And I’m excited to be taking a long break to do what I’ve wanted to do for a very long time - travel.</p>
