About me

I've always loved technology and started programming at a young age. I have been filling my brain with techy things ever since! I LOVE to learn new things, which pairs well with the fast advancing of technology.

I've dabbled in many different technologies over the years, but my focus these days is on business automation and AI. I love helping small businesses with their app ideas and improving their current processes with new technology, startups are also my jam. I love having a challenging goal and learning/implementing what is needed in order to get there.

I am a mom to three kiddos in the Okanagan region of BC, Canada, where I prefer to work remotely, but I travel to clients all over BC and Alberta. I enjoy the outdoors and completing renovation projects around my home and yard. When not working, you can find me somewhere with my kids, often tinkering on my new reno project.

I value integrity, honesty and work hard for my clients.
