My own company, Verdage, is on autopilot while I develop Ruby on Rails apps for multimedia delivery company iAmplify and up-and-coming lifestyle guide Evolvist. Highlights from my portfolio and resume include American Express Publishing (Travel+Leisure) and Fog Creek Software of bug-tracking Joel Spolsky fame. I have a degree from New York University in Computer Science and Linguistics.

I suppose I have to add something to make myself seem human. My passions include semantics and Natural Language Process—wait, that doesn’t work, does it? All right then. I adore cats and Cheburashka. I like long walks on the beach. And I’m not really a countess, unless counting flies counts.
