One-sentence summary: I'm a gregarious, outdoor-sports loving, art-appreciating, politically-savvy computer scientist, entrepreneur and writer.
I am deeply interested in helping companies and teams work well. Creating highly productive groups through reorganization has been a driving theme in my life for over 20 years.
I currently work for Citrix Online as Enterprise ScrumMaster, working with the VP Engineering and VP Product Management to optimize developer effort, maximize value and agilely identify and respond to new markets.
I have been involved in many software startups companies. Some gained liquidity, one did not. I keep a little toe in academia: I was Principal Investigator on three National Science Foundation grants.
I love to travel. The photo above tells a story: Overstock.com's CEO was traveling to New York on business in his private jet. Happy with our efforts to restructure his engineering department, he took me and my husband along, and put us in a hotel facing Central Park. The snow was falling on Christo's Gates. When profession, life and art flow seamlessly, I feel most at home.
