As someone who has been going to conferences regularly for most of my career, it is interesting to see the changes with these various events and also what stays the same.

I started a new job in healthcare IT. Even though I'm still working from home, it's amazing how much I needed to adjust, including when I'll be writing future blog posts.

One of the first pieces of advice that I received when I began working from home was to get out of the house at least once a day. When you live and work within the same space, it can become uninteresting and zap your energy.

I essentially grew up in small business and surrounded by small business owners. There are long hours and lots of stress, especially when also balancing a family.

I started my career as a medical technologist, but I knew before I graduated from college that I didn't want to be in a lab all day.

I work remotely, and I have also managed people who work remotely. Managing remote workers came first, and this was back in the day when this was less accepted.
