    Made an interesting observation today while poking around some startups' "career" page.

    Haha. Looks like they subconsciously illustrated the diversity of their respective companies through the size of their pictures.

    I've had a little crush on Tristian Walker of Bevel for a little while now. It's not because I used the product and it's focuse group Is men of color; but he's a great example of a positive entrepreneur in our community. Thumbs up.

    that most startups' career pages can tell you the whole story about diversity in Tech. Tristan Walker is actively working, alongside other black techies, to change this through both a non-profit he co-founded and his company, Walker & Co. Every other "average" startup is usually as diverse as a few Asian and white women here and there.
