I have over 10 years of technology project management experience. During that time I have co-founded and managed two non-profit makerspaces and successfully grown each into a thriving and lasting enterprise. Each of these organizations consisted of technically proficient members, mostly engineers. I was responsible for conflict resolution and diplomacy in order to keep dozens of members content with project strategies and objectives.
I have organized 3 years of Startup Weekend competitions with over 100 technology entrepreneurs purchasing tickets for each event. Our leadership team consisted of highly skilled and experienced technology professionals. I managed the events and the leadership teams for each event from start to finish. I raised the funds for producing each event (over $15k), and coordinated graphic design assets and marketing strategy, managed event venue sourcing and contracts, recruited angel/VC investors for judging, and much more.
I founded and organized the Google Developer Group for Charleston for 3 years. This was a team of software developers and we met on a monthly basis to share presentations, software development skills, and to collaborate on software projects.
More recently in my consulting business I have provided product development consulting services to over 20 unique clients. My last consulting project was funded by the Dept. of Homeland Security via a $500K grant for mitigation of coastal flooding. Our three person team developed a custom web-app in a 6 month sprint. On that project I was responsible for all of the UX design. I also managed all of the useability testing and designed assets for a 20 person focus group event.
