Who?

In the winters I curl at the Schenectady Curling Club.

Past

I worked at Google, on the Privacy Sandbox project.

I was a homebrewer — my basement is the Tipsy Cat Brewery. If you've ever had a video meeting with me, you probably know I'm into plants and gardening, too.

I was a co-coordinator for Outreachy at Mozilla, and I helped run the (internal) Mozilla Mentorship program.

I worked at Datadog, focusing on the agent.

I worked at Mozilla for over 10 years. I was a member of the team developing Taskcluster, having also worked on the Release Engineering, Release Operations, Special Operations, and Infrastructure teams.

I was "brewmaster general" of the Albany Brew Crafters homebrew club.

I mentored students working on Buildbot with Google Summer of Code.

I hacked on Amanda with Zmanda, Inc., and among many other things I wrote Amanda's interface to Amazon's S3.

I was the maintainer for Buildbot. Now I just run the weekly meetings.

I was the Data Lead for the Illinois branch of Organizing for America.

I was the System Administrator at Juju, Inc.

I was the founding System Administrator, Tech Manager, and a part-time teacher at YWLCS, a girls-only charter school in Chicago.

I got my South Carolina teaching certificate through the "Critical Needs" alternative-certification program. My teaching includes college and K12 experience.

I was the head developer for EnterTrack, the artifact tracking system.

I worked on Teyjus, a lambdaProlog compiler, under Gopalan Nadathur.

I worked on SWIG, under Dave Beazley's watchful eye.

I designed and implemented the University's Computer Science Department's web page way back in 2000, before there were fancy things like web frameworks. The system was in use for over a decade!
