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:

• Managing User Education at Apptio

• Writing two novels, working titles “Time Ripper” and “The Fourth Day”

• Learning to speak Italian

• Brushing up on Japanese

• Travel! This year I’m traveling to Washington, D.C.; Naples, Italy; Tokyo, Japan; and Bengaluru, India

• Continuing to support the PDXWIT Native Americans in Tech affinity group

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.
