I became interested in protecting software over 30 years ago when I wrote my first software application that was being sold in the broadcast industry. Knowing how easy it would be for my hard work to be pirated, I sought out a simple way to copy protect my application.

Thirty years later, my company serves over 6000 customers around the globe, and my passion to help other entrepreneurs and software developers has not decreased.

Oh, and I like to do burpees at famous sites around the world.

I am one of the software engineers at SoftwareKey, with extensive experience in licensing technology. When I was 12, my parents bought me a Commodore Vic-20, and I was hooked on programming.  I love the wide variety of platforms and development technology we support; I’m constantly learning new things.  

Did you know that red hair does not turn gray, but instead turns white?  My red hair now almost looks blonde from the mix of white and red strands!

By the way, if I respond to a ticket and it looks funny, it's because my cat thinks she's a better typist than me.

I'm a St. Louis native, with a background in customer service.  I started when I was 14, handing out cookies and raisins at the local Red Cross.  I've worked in a lot of different industries, but learned early on that providing good customer service is universally appreciated.

I don't do burpees all over the world like Mike does, but I love walking.  I've been known to walk 10-20 miles in a day, just for fun.

I'm one of the Software Engineers with SoftwareKey and have worked on the development of our SOLO Server Automation software licensing server product for over 15 years.

Outside of software development, I am an avid Chicago sports fan and a voracious reader.

I am a systematically supreme SoftwareKey support and service scientist!

 
I enjoy helping others and also getting a good laugh, so you can expect quality support with a touch of humor.

When not focused on software and technology, including interests in virtual reality and crypto currencies, I like to go adventuring with my dog, Radlee.

As a Life Coach bringing the spiritual to life for more than 25 years, I strive to convey spiritual comprehension to physical vision. I love helping people succeed in their endeavors, both inner and outer. Their success is my success! Mike tells me I am also a proof reader/copy editor, par excellence, of the written and spoken word. I'll take that praise and run with it!

Art therapy has been a part of my life for years. I love sculpting, drawing, painting and enjoy when others use these tools to evolve. I have been a "midwife to the dying" throughout my adult life, and have assisted both people and animals in their spiritual transition to their next manifestation, whether through discussion or energetic support.

Otherwise, you can find me walking in native wetlands.

While my education and passions lie in the performing arts, most of my work history has been centered around customer service. From working as a retail associate with Cirque du Soleil to serving as a legal assistant for a family law attorney, I have fallen in love with providing top-notch customer service.

It is my goal to uncover customer needs and exceed expectations with every interaction I have. When not directly assisting customers, my goal is to make my coworkers' jobs as easy as possible, providing support and research whenever I can.

When not in the office, I spend the rest of my time either on stage, in a rehearsal room, or at the theme parks here in Orlando.

Mom, Mimi, wife, accounting.  But my true passion is with animals. I rescue baby animals, mostly squirrels it seems, and try to nurse them back to a point where they can be released back into "the wild" which is just my backyard.

Mike and Team SoftwareKey are so supportive of my efforts, and I just love the days when I come into the office.

I'm trying to get back into running, and Mike & Team SoftwareKey support me with that, too.  I may not be the fastest, but I'll do what it takes to get to the finish line!
