I'm the Emerging Technologies Coordinator in the City of Austin's Economic Development Division. I help our tech companies to grow and thrive, and help bring new ones here. I work in clean energy, digital media, wireless communications, and biotechnology (among others). I sit for and train dogs in my "spare" time, and am always looking for new challenges. I love the Alamo Drafthouse, and am an amateur filmmaker myself.
