I live with my wonderful husband and our cat, Ume, in the San Francisco Bay area. See my interests page for more about me.

I currently work for Intuit as a Senior UI Designer. We are creating a new offering in the healthcare space, which is very exciting. I enjoy all aspects of creating the user experience, from concept to implementation.

I am originally from Spring Hill, Fl. In case you haven't heard of this small retirement community in central Florida, let me tell you a little about it. In the words of a college professor of mine, "You're from Spring Hill? Yeah, I know that town. Average age: dead." Yep. That about sums it up.

Since then, I've escaped to more lively places like Atlanta, Chicago, and San Francisco. I enjoy everything that urban areas have to offer, and enjoy studying the differences between suburban, rural and urban landscapes. My second career would have been in urban planning if it wasn't for this whole Interweb thing. Of all the places I've lived, I enjoy the Bay Area most for its culture, people, weather, and close proximity to the beautiful and diverse landscapes of California. And did I say weather?!
