  • 🦄 I am a polyglot developer
  • 👨‍🚒 I love contributing to open source software
  • 🐳 I play in the developer tools space
  • 🦁 I have a soft spot for fuzzy animals

I am a software developer based in the wilds of suburban Chicago, working remote on the Microsoft Azure team. My passion is developer tools, and building vibrant inclusive open-source communities around them.

I am a maintainer for Porter and the Cloud Native Application Bundle (CNAB) Specification. I run Women Who Go, am a lead for CNCF SIG Contributor Strategy, and serve on the Kubernetes Code of Conduct Committee.

In between code reviews, I haul my cookies around the world to share my love of Go, containers, and excessive emoji. 🌈 ✨
