Bio
I’m a left-handed Texas native who relocated to Seattle more than 20 years ago, but Texas is now my home again. In 1990, I joined the US division of a global consulting firm, now part of the Fujitsu family. During my 13-year career at Fujitsu Consulting (FC) I have worked in a variety of roles, including Finance & Administration, Marketing Support, Program & Project Management, Internal Management Consulting, Executive Change Management, Knowledge Management, and most recently Internal Communications.

I love the project aspect of my work, and have had a great deal of fun with a number of interesting and challenging assignments. I was the Project Manager for the publication of one of the company’s business books (with multiple authors scattered around the world), and also led the effort to develop FC’s first KM portal in Lotus Notes.

My current communications responsibilities are focused on the US division, but the job still requires cooperation and collaboration with other Fujitsu companies, in North America and around the world.

Education
BA in Business Administration; BA in Norwegian Language & Literature and Scandinavian Area Studies, University of Washington

Other Interests
Films and film festivals of all kinds, travel, spending time with my partner and the cats (Blue and Atalanta)
