About Me
My Experience
For over 20 years, I have held various positions in Software Development starting in Technical Support at ADP then moving to QA in small (Remedy, Xythos) and large (BMC, Blackboard) companies before managing various IT teams, products and projects.
My Skillset
During my IT career, I have been exposed to and mastered most OS's (Windows, MacOS, Linux, Unix), Databases (Oracle, Microsoft SQL, Postgres), Source Control (Git, Perforce, SVN), Web Servers, Project Management Tools (MS Office and Project, JIRA, Agile and Kanban boards, Confluence), Development Tools (CAPTain, Jenkins, SalesForce, Edition Tools (MindTouch, Drupal, Flare, InDesign), Development Languages (HTML, CSS, XML, Python, R, Perl), L10n & I18n processes .
My Passions
Outside the office, I am an avid mushroomer, gardener and cook. I hike the National Forests and Parks in California looking for fungi, leading groups with MSSF. I then enjoy cooking them in creative ways. When not busy with mycology, I keep my garden beautiful for the eyes and tasty for the bees and our table.
