Hi, I’m Mady Dewey ❤️ nice to meet you

Hey everyone! Since so many of you are looking to learn more about me, I wanted to dive a bit deeper than just a quick intro. It's truly nice to meet all of you here on Lemon8, and I'm thrilled to share more about my life, passions, and everything in between. You might know me from my time as a Sports Illustrated Swimsuit model, which was an incredible chapter that taught me so much. Walking those runways and being part of such an iconic publication was an absolute dream come true. It was an experience that pushed me out of my comfort zone and introduced me to so many amazing people. Beyond the modeling world, my day-to-day life is deeply rooted in tech here in San Francisco. I currently lead product at a startup called TYB. It’s a super dynamic role, constantly challenging me to innovate and bring new ideas to life. I’m really passionate about technology and its power to connect people and solve problems. You'll definitely see me sharing some insights from my tech journey, and maybe even some behind-the-scenes of startup life! When I’m not immersed in product development or modeling, you’ll find me embracing my inner 'Big Hobby Girl.' One of my favorite ways to unwind is hitting the golf course – there’s something so therapeutic about being out in nature and focusing on that perfect swing. And speaking of therapeutic, my love for baking is no secret! There's nothing quite like the smell of fresh bread filling the kitchen. I recently perfected a recipe for golden-brown bread rolls (you might have seen a picture!), and I'm always experimenting with new recipes. My world wouldn't be complete without my two furry overlords, Caramel and Fin. Yes, I'm absolutely obsessed with my cats! They bring so much joy and chaos into my life, and I wouldn't have it any other way. Expect lots of cute cat content! I'm also preparing for a big milestone: I'm a 2025 bride! Honestly, wedding planning can be a rollercoaster – I admit, I don't always love the planning process itself, but I'm so excited for the big day and to officially start this new chapter. It's a journey, and I’ll be sharing some honest thoughts and tips along the way. Family is incredibly important to me. As the eldest daughter of five children, I've always cherished those bonds. And my amazing community in San Francisco truly feels like an extended family. From friends to colleagues, they’re my support system and constant source of inspiration. So, whether you're interested in tech, modeling, baking, pet adventures, or just navigating life in San Francisco, I'm here to share it all. I can't wait to connect with more of you and hear what you’d like to see next!
