I’m passionate about how humans interact with our digital world and the internet, and having studied conversation analysis, sociophonetics, and ethnography, I am fascinated by the subtleties of how we talk to our devices and technologies, and in particular, how those interactions can result in mistakes.

I am also a new “unmarried woman” homeowner and co-parent, so I also spend a lot of time making this house I bought a real nest of my own. I’m doing my best to create good childhood experiences for my kids and I have no doubt I’m committing a bunch of errors there, as all parents do.

I joke about user error a lot in my daily life. My hope for this blog is a that it celebrates the ways humans and computers mess up (and maybe my mess-ups in particular). Navigating this human-physical-spiritual experience is hard stuff and it didn’t come with a user manual (although, does anyone look at them anyway?).

If you’d like to connect to discuss opportunities or learn more about my experience, please reach out.
