| Introduction | I'm a former technology consutlant, now the at-home parent to 2 (really great) kids. I have found as a mom that technology continues to play a big role in my life, some technologies are life-altering, even (ask me if I could live without my iphone!) |
| Interests | Writing, gardening, photography, my kids. Ho-hum, what a dull life I lead. It's like I read a book about the "hobbies moms should have" eh? OK, throw technology in the mix...but don't get all crazy on me. I don't want to code or anything, I just like using nifty tools. |
