Powered By BLOCKCHAIN
Tech Misfits is releasing collection of unique digital artworks that champion diversity, STEM, and innovation. The artworks will be released digitally using blockchain technology.

Blockchain is a software that provides the means for recording transactions via an online shared ledger. This shared ledger can be used to record any transaction and track the movement of any item whether tangible, intangible, or digital.

Our digital collectibles are created using a blockchain-based technology called NFTs. An NFT is a unique digital identifier that is recorded on a blockchain, and is used to certify ownership and authenticity. It cannot be copied, substituted, or subdivided. The ownership of an NFT is recorded in the blockchain and can be transferred by the owner to a new owner.

Tech Misfits Members can choose to subscribe via a traditional monthly/annual subscription or subscribe by collecting our digital artworks!

Meet The Founder, Iris Nevins

A former teacher turned software engineer and engineering manager

Hi, my name is Iris Nevins, and in 2017 I decided to pursue a career in technology after realizing my friends & family were getting left behind by the technology revolution.

I attended a coding bootcamp and got my first job at Mailchimp as a junior software engineer. Eventually I became an engineering manager while also organizing online & in-person events to introduce professionals to innovative technologies.

Working in technology has shown me how vast the opportunities are for every day people to adopt tools that can benefit them greatly.

I have hosted over 240 online events & 30+ IRL events for thousands of people. We've built a robust & diverse network​ and now we are launching a subscription-based community for tech literacy education & networking.

I also work as a full-time engineering manager at Workday!
