I love being outdoors hiking with my family and dog, but currently spend most of my "free" time as a typical soccer and basketball mom. My interest in learning and solving new challenges has led me along a non-linear path to become a Strategic Programs Manager for the Software Network. I started at Intel running local charitable giving and volunteer programs, simply because it sounded like loads of fun (which it was). I helped launch the Intel Software Partner Program and managed Intel's presence at software developer events (JavaOne, LinuxWorld, GDC, etc.). I've been an energy consultant, intern at Tokyo Electric Power Co., and Rotary Scholar in France. My French is fluent, but Japanese and German are rusty. I'm an Arizona Wildcat and Georgetown Hoya.
