Girlies in Tech Dinner | London, UK Edition
London girlies… we’re doing it 🇬🇧✨
I’ll be in London **May 14–18**, and I’m hosting the **first-ever [Girlies in Tech dinner](https://luma.com/girliesintechdinner) in London**.
If you’re a **designer, engineer, PM, founder, student, intern, or just generally a woman working in tech**, I’d love to meet you. These dinners are meant to be small, relaxed, and actually social — the goal is to meet new people and hopefully leave with a few new friends in tech.
📍 Dinner will be at **Agrodolce London**, a cozy Italian spot in **Fitzrovia** right in the **West End**. Think a little **West End girl energy.**
It’s super easy to get to — just a short walk from **Goodge Street Station** on the Northern Line, and there are also tons of buses nearby.
If you’re a student at University of London, senior level techie, live around the West End, or just want to come into town for dinner, you’re very welcome.
A few quick details:
🍝 **Small dinner (11 seats total)**
🗓 **May 16, 2026**
💸 **Pay your own meal** (RSVP is free)
These dinners have been a **hot commodity in the U.S.** — they’ve sold out quickly in **New York City**, **Chicago**, and **Washington, D.C.** — so I’m excited to finally bring one to London.
Seats are limited, but if you’re interested, RSVP and come join us for a cozy Italian dinner with other women in tech.
And if this one fills up quickly… I’ll definitely plan another London meetup in the future.
If you have any questions, feel free to [reach out](https://www.linkedin.com/in/jrdnhrrsn/) 💛

Building Scalable Customer Identity Resolution Pipelines on AWS Using AI
Customer identity resolution becomes increasingly complex as organizations scale across multiple systems, regions, and data formats. Traditional rule-based approaches often fail to keep up with data variability, require constant manual tuning, and struggle with real-time processing needs.
This session presents a practical approach to building a scalable identity resolution pipeline using AWS services and modern AI techniques. The architecture combines data ingestion through Amazon S3 and AWS Glue, transformation pipelines using Spark on EMR, and machine learning models deployed via SageMaker for entity matching and standardization. Graph-based relationship modeling is implemented using Amazon Neptune to improve resolution accuracy by incorporating household and shared attribute context.
We will walk through how machine learning models can be used for name and address normalization, how intelligent blocking strategies improve matching efficiency, and how feedback loops can be introduced to continuously improve accuracy. The session also highlights how serverless components such as AWS Lambda can be used for orchestration and real-time processing.

**⚠️ Important:** Your rsvp here is not a registration confirmation, so register through your age group link above and complete the personality quiz — places close once the group is full so sign up early, and only a completed registration locks in your seat.

**How it works**
1. **Lock in your place** – using the link for your age bracket, then finish the personality questionnaire, since this is how you are officially confirmed.
2. **Hop on** – by clicking the Zoom invite at the event time, laptop phone or tablet — your choice, all work fine, and a host is live and will walk you through everything.
3. **Take part in the rounds** – host-guided one-on-one rounds with compatible Detroit singles in your bracket, as the host handles all transitions so conversations stay natural, as the quiz results already did the work of choosing who you meet.
4. **See your results** – after all rounds finish mutual matches are distributed privately, as privacy is guaranteed for all non-mutual selections, and once you have it you decide how and when to connect.
**Perfect for:**
- Anyone calling Detroit home wanting to escape digital dating that never converts to anything real and want to meet real locals without the faff.
- Individuals in Detroit who are tired of app fatigue and empty match queues and want to talk to real people tonight.
- Locals living in Detroit getting away from app fatigue and empty match queues and want real chemistry over profile photos.
- Daters within Detroit who are tired of matches that ghost after two messages and are ready for something genuine instead.

✨ Done with apps — start here — use the link above to register and the host takes it from there this time. Your next chapter might start tonight. 🔥 ✨
