About
I am an assistant professor in a computing field, getting dangerously close to going up for (gulp) tenure. I am a mother, a late-blooming athlete, an unapologetic feminist, and a pretty decent cook.
I am passionate about technology and its transformative effects on society, science, and culture. My goal is to help everyone learn to tap into and embrace his or her inner geek. I am equally passionate about opening access to technology for all, and in smashing the stereotypical and unwelcoming "geek culture" apart.
I have been blogging since December, 2004. My old blog is here.
