Get to Know Me
I currently reside in Grand Rapids, Michigan with my husband and son. I have been fortunate to have been in IT consulting for most of my career serving in various roles throughout the years as a software developer, solution architect, cloud strategist, and team management positions.
In my free time, I enjoy early morning runs, attending music concerts, visiting new cities, and enjoying the outdoors with my family.
What’s the best trip I’ve ever taken and why?
That anything can be accomplished with dedication and patience. The result might not be what we were aiming towards initially, but it will be what we needed at the time.
Who inspires you and why?
I find inspiration in a variety of people and things. I would have to say that the two people who have most greatly inspired me have been my parents. Growing up watching them keep a positive attitude towards life and upholding integrity, no matter the obstacles, has been a constant testimony on how I strive to live life. They are always willing to be a helping hand to someone and understand that life is a constant learning about ourselves, about each other, and from others.
