Focusing on a narrow set of clear priorities is a key to success.

I’m in the Portland, Oregon area, trying to lead a healthy, lower stress life. To keep myself honest and focused, here are my current priorities, in order of the time I’m spending on them:

• Improve my mental and physical health

• Manage User Education at Apptio

• Write two novels, with the goal of completing the second draft of one and the final draft of the other by the end of 2025

Because of these priorities, I’m not currently open to any other opportunities. I’m not looking for other jobs, volunteer opportunities, or speaking opportunities. If my priorities change, I will update this page.
