Helping organizations pull on various threads in product strategy, go-to-market, IT change management and organizational design.

Career breaks due to a layoff never come at an "ideal time", but for me the flexibility of getting one child off to study abroad, another through the final stages of choosing and getting ready for college, and hands-on project management of a kitchen renovation has kept me busy!

My transfer and promotion into the Internal Applications team broadened my area of responsibility to include a number of internal technologies that were used for knowledge, learning and collaboration.* Project Leader for SumTotal LMS upgrade - mapped business processes to new.

In 2006, we realized that my skills and interests were more closely aligned with the HRIS team as opposed to the Organizational Development team. This resulted in a lateral job transfer and put me further down the path into the world of technology.

My first job out of college was as an educator at a non-profit science center. All my friends were jealous, because I wore an astronaut flight suit every day as we took middle school students on simulated space missions. It was this experience that really opened my eyes to the power of technology to transform society - 12 years old boys and girls were.
