I am currently Senior Vice President of Academics and Professor of Computer Science at Neumont University in Salt Lake City, Utah. Although my university degrees (from Caltech and Berkeley) are in Mechanical Engineering, most of my career thus far has been related to software engineering and business. After grad school, I co-founded a software company called ArsDigita Corporation, which was later acquired by Red Hat. At ArsDigita, I led a software development division in Cambridge, MA, ran the company's London, UK office, and engineered dozens of enterprise Web applications and a handful of voice applications. My open-source software for building online communities and e-commerce sites has been adopted by thousands of Internet application operators worldwide. I also spent one year in Guatemala as a Visiting Professor of Computer Science at Galileo University. I've co-authored two books: Early Adopter VoiceXML (Wrox Press, 2001) and Software Engineering for Internet Applications (MIT Press, due out in early 2006). Software engineering is an exciting field for women to go into.
It's fun because you get to solve challenging puzzles, collaborate
with team members, and work with an interesting variety of clients.
But, most importantly, with software you can change the world --
whether you're creating medical applications, enabling communication
in remote parts of the world, or developing desktop apps that will
save businesses time and money.
