Experience

Nov. 2007-Present: Self Employed! I've been successfully self-employed since November of 2007. My business has evolved over time but I've steadily increased clients since then. My belief is that service is who you are, not what you do.

Overture Technologies 2005-2007 - Business Analyst As a lead business analyst at Overture, I wore many hats ranging from requirements documentation and elicitation, sales support, project support and assistance with quality assurance. I also helped make decisions on new hires, conducting team interviews and reviewing resumes.

GuideWorks, Inc (previously TV Guide Interactive) 2005 - Assistant Product Manager As Assistant Product Manager, I helped determine, develop, and support the core line of features of our company's main software product. Part of this job entailed working with partners and affiliates, participating and observing market research and usability research, and working in a cross-functional team to design, develop, test and implement the product.

One of my greatest achievements as an APM was coming with a pretty nifty new product which is patent-pending (yay, a patent for me). It's currently in production so if you have Comcast cable, you're likely to see something that I invented come into your home. Hint: it's cable for kids.

TV Guide Interactive 2003-2005 - Technical Communications Specialist My technical writing career got its professional start at this job in Tulsa, Oklahoma. I put my technical writing and editing training to use composing and compiling software requirements, product description documents and user guides. This was a great place to work and a really nice work environment.

I was subsequently promoted to Assistant Product Manager.

Temporary Solutions 1999-2003 - Temporary Staff Completed several short-term and long-term temporary administrative projects for Temporary Solutions. These ranged from full-time administrative assistant for a construction company, to assisting in the human resources department for a government contractor, to receptionist positions at various agencies.
