I was born into a family where education and creativity were equally valued. My father was a librarian and scholar. My mother was a master seamstress and business owner. From my father, I inherited a love for information and learning. From my mother, I learned creativity and the art of transformation.
I am the intersection of their worlds: technical understanding and creative expression.
My path has been anything but linear. Healthcare, food service, emergency billing, higher education, corporate environments. I have been a teaching assistant, mentor, jewelry maker, and student of both humanities and technology. Each role taught me about systems. How they work, how they fail, and how to find your way through them.
When I allowed myself to dive deeper into technology and become part of that world, everything clicked. I built ProveitPal (a mental fitness app, currently in beta). I create original music as TheMusicAuntie, with concept albums streaming now. I write The Human Algorithm, articles on AI, creativity, and building things. And I built this entire website and the plugins that power it.
