After a decade of working in tech, I've decided to take a breather. I'm planning to get some rest, learn new things, connect with my community, and just generally recalibrate on my way to deciding what's next for me. The list of things I want to do is long, but it includes finishing a technical writing course I signed up for, rebuilding my website, and working on some personal projects. You can find me at my local library, the YMCA or Oakhurst Pool, the food bank where I volunteer, or on my couch.

I most recently worked as the editor of The GitHub Blog from my home office in the Atlanta, Georgia area. Previously, I managed blog, social media, and conference content for engineering at Salesforce.

I work hard to build community and to bring people together around their shared love of using technology to solve problems. I believe that words matter, and I'm passionate about crafting them. I am always reading a book and also enjoy hiking and backpacking with my husband. I take far too many pictures of my cat and love to talk about the Oxford comma.
