Cynthia Cynthia McGillis

Hi! I'm Cynthia.

I like going fast. I'm currently doing that at Laravel where I lead marketing. I was the second marketing hire and joined before we launched Laravel Cloud. We just celebrated our one year and went from 0 to 100,000+ users in that time.

Prior to that, I was employee ~150 at Vercel and part of the original marketing team. I ran the first-ever in-person Next.js Conf, overhauled our self-serve funnel, and optimized the site for inbound pipeline.

I started my career in sales ops and I'll forever be secretly in love with processes and systems.

I love AI and use Claude Code on the daily. I'm constantly tinkering and have built a few things. All hosted on Laravel Cloud, ofc.

Outside of work stuff, I live in San Diego, CA with the love of my life and our 3 kids. Life is good and only getting better.

Wanna talk? Find me on X, the everything app or LinkedIn.
