Bio
Over the last 40+ years I’ve worked in major high technology companies and tiny start-ups; I’ve been a real estate agent, programmer, project manager, program manager, and user interface designer. My name is on three patents held by Intel Corporation, where I worked for nearly 15 years. The persistent thread through all my work has been communication: it always comes back to words. I love words.
From sixth grade through my junior year of high school I attended Kodaikanal International School, a boarding school in the mountains of southern India. For many years thereafter I still considered India my home, much to the confusion of college classmates. A year in Madrid, Spain followed a few years later. I've lost count of how many times I've circled the globe since that first trip to India. I relish travel every time I have the opportunity.
I'm happily retired, except for maintaining Quincy Companion Books. I currently live in Beaverton, just a few miles from Portland, Oregon, with Dan, my husband (former Navy). My son is now out of the Navy and to my delight he lives only five miles away.
