My path to "high tech" has been diverse! In school, I studied marine botany
and public policy and spent a lot of time doing musical theater and playing
in a bluegrass band. I spent 8 years in broadcasting and then worked 7 in
the non-profit world until I was recruited to run a small Internet startup.
I fell into the Internet like I was made for it, discovering online
interaction and virtual community.

In 1997 I launched my own company weaving together my skills: high tech,
managment, communications, non-profits, teaching, writing... you name it. By
following my passion, I'm told I'm now one of the leading experts in online
facilitation. This amazes me (and I take it with a huge grain of salt) but
confirms that by strenthening and following your passion, you can do amazing
things. Diverse experiences, skills and interests can be woven together for
a fulfilling career!
