Honored to join an amazing team built by many former colleagues! I serve as a functional liaison betwixt IT, Marketing, Sales and Support, architecting solutions for CRM, Marketing Automation, ERP, and other internal and SaaS software. When wearing my light-gray hat, I'm usually crawling websites using home-brewed Python-based spiders to gather and database market, conference, and competitor research.In these aspects, I'm aptly "digital grout", integrating data from multiple platforms using APIs and automations to provide end-to-end vision of our prospects, opportunity pipeline, to happily satisfied and well supported customers.

For the first time in CodeLogic's history, created instantly available online demos of the live software product running in cloud-based virtualized environments. This container-based environment (built in GCP) enabled prospects to kick the tires on a full functional demo environment created just for them. I really enjoyed blurring the lines between marketing and development to increase accessibility and demonstrability of a great SaaS product!

Still connecting oncologists, pathologists, pharma and cancer biologists with cutting-edge next-gen sequencing assays by ArcherDX (formerly by Enzymatics).As ArcherDX divested from Enzymatics, I gained a few more hats, including (but not limited to) Webmaster, eCommerce Manager, Salesforce.com Administrator, SEO/SEM Analyst, and lead-generation web spider trainer. I built our new website and ecommerce platforms - my fourth scientific website re-platforming experience.

I connect oncologists, pathologists and cancer biologists with cutting-edge next-generation sequencing translocation-discovery panels via the web.This includes directing both inbound and outbound marketing initiatives including SEO/SEM, AdWords, email, social, and print marketing. This took hands-on implementation of Google Universal Analytics and cross-domain tracking to quantify customer engagement patterns and determine ROI for online marketing activities (if an untracked tree falls in a digital forest, does it really make a conversion?).

Originally started as my web design hobby site, Skinyourscreen.com continues to attract design and consultation contracts (Bio-Rad Laboratories, Inc., GJKDesigns, LifeScienceNexus.com, and http://www.wasatchgardens.org).This design community also successfully serves as a vehicle for my digital creations - my "Disable Expose" AppleScript was featured by MacWorld magazine (http://hints.macworld.com/article.php?story=20100517020728222), and online software catalog SoftPedia (http://mac.softpedia.com/get/System-Utilities/Expose-Disable.shtml), while my themes have attracted 500,000 downloads.

My work in the laboratory of Matthew Mulvey, Ph.D. investigated post-transcriptional regulators and their roles in fitness and virulence in uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC). This research demonstrated multiple virulence determinants, such as motility, LPS profile, and resistance to multiple host defenses were regulated by the RNA chaperone Hfq. This research also revealed phenotypic cross-regulation of CsrA-regulated systems, such as biofilm elaboration.
