05 Work History
Experience
Twenty-five years relevant experience working autonomously, and fractionally, as a member of a team — in both agile and formal environments.
- Responsibilities:
-
I left Florida and returned to Indiana during the pandemic to spend time with my aging parents while continuing part-time with Intuitive Reason. Shortly thereafter, my father was diagnosed with melanoma, and I took on the role of primary caregiver. Over the past 18 months, I have executed my father’s estate and overseen property renovations.
With these responsibilities now settled, I am fully able to dedicate myself to a full-time position and am excited to bring my skills and experience to a new opportunity and continue growing as a designer and developer.
