I love coffee, electronic music (BT, Underworld, Röyksopp), 80s music, gin, video games (Assassin's Creed, Animal Crossing, Mario Kart), and I was a super SCSS nerd back in the day. I am attempting to learn to play the bass guitar but failing at it. My husband Shannon and I have been married for seven years and currently live in Las Vegas NV and spend our time traveling and spending time with friends and family.

I am originally from the NJ shore but spent my life moving around the country starting in 1997 when I moved to the Bay Area during the first tech bubble to be a "webmaster" for a small web-based software company. I relocated to Las Vegas with the company in 2001 and lived there for five years. I moved to Maryland in 2006, helped raise my nieces for about seven years, and spent my time freelancing and working with small companies to build MVP Rails apps. In 2012, I moved to DC and started working at LivingSocial as a front-end developer in internal tools. I started at GitHub on April 1, 2013, working remotely from DC. A year later, I moved to SF, worked out of the headquarters for a year, and finally moved back to Vegas on April 1, 2015. In 2022, after almost nine years, I left GitHub to take on an engineering leadership role with CargoSense, focusing on growing and supporting the best software engineering teams.

I prioritize forward momentum. Whether it's shipping a product, making a decision, or even unshipping a feature, progress is the cornerstone upon which opportunities and great teams are built.

Poor communication is often the root of many problems. I advocate for a culture of open dialogue, verification, and transparency. These elements are key to building trust and fostering an inclusive environment.

Trust and honesty are inseparable and foundational for any relationship. Ethical responsibility extends this trust towards society and the environment, ensuring a holistic approach to decision-making.
