My Cloud Journey

Beginnings

From the start, I knew technology was my path. After earning my engineering degree from the University of Minnesota - Twin Cities, I dove into consulting with Deloitte, traveling coast to coast for four years. The pace was relentless, but it accelerated my growth—what felt like eight years of experience compressed into four.

Local Model

After years of constant travel, I found myself craving something different—stability, a deeper connection to home, and the chance to build a family. In 2019, my daughter Adeline, was born into the world—moment changed everything. I knew I wanted to be present, to create a life where I could grow both personally and professionally without sacrificing time with my family. I pivoted to Slalom Consulting, where I could stay local, shape cloud solutions, and build something lasting—both in my career and at home.

I aligned with their cloud services practice, seamlessly navigating between technology enablement and delivery services. It was a role that challenged me technically while allowing me to build meaningful relationships—both at work and at home.

Independent Consultant

The pandemic prompted deep reflection. Consulting had always been my passion, but going independent gave me the freedom to offer truly unbiased recommendations while maintaining top-tier client standards. It’s been an exciting journey, and I look forward to what’s next—maybe with you!
