Who am I?

My name is Claire Stapleton. I started working at Google the summer after I graduated from college. From 2007-2012, I was in the Communications Department and sent around incredibly earnest/quirky company-wide emails that earned me the sobriquet “The Bard of Google.” Things took a turn in 2018 when I helped call for the 20K-person Google Walkout, which set off a chain of events that led to the stunning dénouement of my Google career six months later.
