As Editor In Chief of Silicon Bayou News, I report on entrepreneurs, companies and trends within the New Orleans startup scene and throughout Louisiana.

I'm the co-founder and organizer at NOLA Meetup, a monthly technology meetup, and a member and current Vice Curator at Global Shapers New Orleans, the local hub of the World Economic Forum initiative that supports young emerging leaders around the globe.

While I have an incurable case of wanderlust and is often traveling, she loves exploring the Big Easy too. As the owner of one too many bicycles, you can catch her cruising around the city, stopping along the way for live music and the best new restaurants.
