I am a longtime contributor to the open source Pressbooks project. I previously served as product manager and customer experience lead for Pressbooks. Before joining Pressbooks, I worked for several years as an educational technology consultant and an English instructor at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, where I earned a Ph.D. in English Literature and a master’s degree in Library and Information Studies. Beyond my family, my great loves are poetry (especially the work of the “Objectivists”), music, vegetarian food, and playing pickup soccer.
