I am a Christian lesbian and an application developer, primarily mobile web application development, for a government agency. My day-to-day life consists of using technology to help my arm of the government be more efficient and productive. On my breaks, I am an avid Tweeter, advocating for LGBT groups, kids, and girls in STEM. I participate in various social media events of Out Leadership. I recently started leading sessions teaching girls/women that they can code. I'm studious, creative, and a left/right brain combination of an awkward geek and nerd. I'm occasionally amusing, particularly to myself... My first book, available for Kindle/eBook and Audible/iTunes/audio (narrated by the awesome Lauren Fortgang), was a surprise to me. The plan was to write science fiction/fantasy in a few years after I got my PhD, but my story apparently had to be written now. Read More doesn't work on some mobile browsers. The book contains the rest... ;-) I was born in California. I grew up in a little town in Northwest Arkansas. I spent my 10th grade year in Hawaii. After graduating high school and washing out of Air Force basic training, I moved back to Hawaii to go to college. My education focused on writing, art, and psychology. Later, I switched and got an Associates in Respiratory Care. I couldn't get a job, and given the expense of living in Hawaii, I moved back to the mainland, to California, where I still live today. I went back to school for Computer Science. I washed out of Computer Science, because I apparently don't have a brain for Engineering. I ended up getting a Bachelor's in Business with an emphasis on Computer Science and a minor in Psychology. I followed that up with a Master's in Management of Information Systems and an MBA. Can you tell that education is important to me?
