I'm passionate about the human side of technology. My professional background includes recruiting, community outreach, employee engagement, and product ownership. I'm an international speaker who specializes in teaching professional skills to technical audiences. I'm President Emeritus of the DogFoodCon tech conference and President of the Stir Scholarship for young women pursuing tech degrees I have an MBA in Organizational Leadership. When I'm not busy with the tech community, I'm an avid tabletop gamer, runner, and soccer fan who travels as much as possible.
