I am a native of Milwaukee, Wisconsin and have lived in Oak Park, Illinois since 2001.

My Bachelors degree in Political Science was received from the University of Wisconsin-Madison in 1994. I have worked in corporate communications and systems groups in large multinationals and small startups and in television stations doing web development, technical training, technical writing and application support.

Many consider me hopelessly overextended for pursuing a Masters degree at the Illinois Institute of Technology while serving as an officer in two non-profit organizations and working full time. My hope is that this degree advances my knowledge of how to best communicate ideas, concepts, processes and systems.

Anything else about me can be found on Twitter, LinkedIn or Facebook. Asking to be my friend or contact on any of these sites is fine, just remind me how we met!
