Measures for Justice

This month, we celebrate Adrien Bibiloni-Morales’ third anniversary at Measures for Justice! Adrien is our Mac Systems Administrator II - so he is in charge of configuring and managing all devices with an Apple logo across the organization.🍎💻 Adrien came to MFJ with over two decades of experience in technology across the for-profit, higher education, and not-for-profit sectors. His favorite part of working at MFJ is the people he works with, who he describes as highly intelligent, mission-driven, curious, and helpful. Outside of the office, Adrien enjoys spending time with his family, playing Real Time Strategy video games, and watching hockey. Congratulations, Adrien, and thank you for always being there to answer any computer questions we have!

July marks 10 years of having our VP of Product & Design, Gipsy at MFJ! Gipsy’s role is to support the execution of our product strategy so that we can continue to provide transparent, accessible criminal justice data across the county. With a background in political science, Gipsy's interest in crime-prevention policy began during her work with the Colombian government, culminating in a PhD in Criminal Justice in 2012. Gipsy’s favorite part of working at MFJ is the incredible team and the chance to make a meaningful impact on the criminal justice system. Outside of work, she enjoys reading horror novels, watching Abbott Elementary, and listening to post-punk/new-wave music. Thank you for everything you do for MFJ, Gipsy!
