Jocelyn Garibay

General Manager

Pronouns: She / Her / Hers

Jocelyn Garibay is Code2040’s General Manager - a key member of the organization’s Senior Leadership Team. In Jocelyn’s role, she builds internal culture, systems, departments, and policies that further her vision for a world in which workplaces center Black and Latinx employees’ experiences and humanity. Where our joy, brilliance, history, and accomplishments are celebrated and amplified for the whole tech industry to see and feel. 

Jocelyn has worked across 70 tech companies delivering training and consulting around navigating bias, sitting in productive and hard conversations about race, and managing from a racial equity lens. Jocelyn drives organizational strategy and works to make Code2040 the most sustainable and equitable version of itself.

Jocelyn has experience integrating racial equity into every aspect of the employee lifecycle - from building human-centered hiring processes to designing strategies grounded in radical transparency; every system that upholds our workplaces has space to become more equitable and to work better for our people - in and outside of work.

Before Code2040, Jocelyn has been an internal equity and inclusion champion in both the tech and non-profit sectors. She helped her workplaces build their first Diversity & Inclusion initiative, supported their first company-wide Diversity & Inclusion assessment,  rolled out an Employee Resource Group structure, and unionized staff for higher wages and better overtime policies. 

Outside of work, Jocelyn has co-chaired the historic San Francisco Dyke March for four years and focuses on bringing curanderismo - traditional, holistic Mexican healing - to communities of color in Oakland, CA

Jocelyn is a queer, feminist, Aquarian Latina. When she’s not dreaming of a racially equitable tech industry where Black and Brown folks thrive, she’s probably off talking to a Redwood tree, dancing to house and soul tunes, or making a magical elixir for healing. Who likes lavender?
