Bio

I am currently a Senior Development Manager at Bazaarvoice, an Austin-based software company developing products that connect brands and retailers to consumers through authentic word of mouth interactions. Prior to Bazaarvoice, I was a Director of Development at Convio, a leading provider of software solutions that enable nonprofit organizations to raise funds and cultivate relationships with their constituents. Convio was acquired by Blackbaud in 2012. I have also held management, software engineering, and software trainer positions at IBM / Tivoli Systems, Compu-Train, and Synergis.

I am a graduate of Purdue University in Computer Science.
