Howdy! I'm a graduate of the University of Texas at Austin with dual degrees: a Geography B.A. in Biogeographically Environmental Systems and a Biology B.S. in Life Science Systems. I've also completed a medical school M.S. in the research and development (R&D) of internationally regulated biotechnologies such as drugs, devices, and biologics at the George Washington University School of Medicine and Health Sciences. My managerial and financial skills were improved with an M.B.A. at our nation's largest women's university, the Texas Woman's University, and the Certified Financial Planner credential. Raised in a family of all boys, I also embraced inevitable human differences and transgressive identity choices as precious diversity with a Humanities M.A. in Women’s Studies. I'm intellectually promiscuous and have developed the Information Age systems-thinking capabilities of five distinct schools or colleges: Liberal Arts, Natural Sciences, Medicine, Business, and Humanities.
Much of my background is in Information
Technology (IT), Health IT (HIT),
systems thinking, and
predictive analytics with vendor-neutral certifications in software quality
engineering, project management, systems analysis, quality auditing, and
the
secure software development lifecycle. I was born in
Sri Lanka, a small
tropical
island in the
Indian Ocean with beautiful beaches. At five years of age, my family moved to
the United States. My childhood was spent in Norman, Oklahoma, but a
majority of my youth was in the small farming community of Brimfield,
Ohio.
