February 2013 – January 2015
Quality Assurance Coordinator
I believe strongly in preserving our resources. After leaving Democracy Live,
I found this local startup company that made recyclable plastic cups from
partially recycled material. I started on the production line, and in two years,
I became the company’s expert on food safety and potential contamination
issues.
This company closed its doors in 2015.
Democracy Live, Inc.
Voter Information Technologies
December, 2007 – January, 2013
Director of Project Management, Data Analyst
We started Democracy Live as an individual voter information platform that
would deliver candidate information to each voter, based on his or her ballot
options. In 2009, Federal legislation required each jurisdiction to deliver
ballots electronically to Military and Overseas voters. In 2010 we were able
to deliver electronic ballots to 6 states, using each county’s existing ballot
data. I was instrumental in guiding the development of the Democracy Live
technology through the labyrinth of election rules and options to achieve a
perfect result in every case.
5. During this time, I supplemented my income at times working in a
lumberyard and building independent web sites.

County Administration
June 2003 – December, 2007
San Juan County Elections Supervisor
I was promoted from Chief Recording Deputy to Elections Supervisor.
Elections in the early 2000s were under great scrutiny and change. As a
result of Federal grants that were made available to upgrade elections
systems, I was able to purchase all new hardware and software for the office.
Because of this change, procedures had to be updated in accordance with
existing laws and rules.
We also successfully conducted the closest Governor’s race in US history in
2004.

While serving as Chief Recording Deputy, I simultaneously served as

offices.

Departmental Assistant
I came to the Auditor’s office after a move to Washington State so that my
family could be closer to my aging parents. Prior to this move, I had a
successful career in lithography in the Midwest.
My proudest accomplishment in this position was to upgrade and enhance an
existing MSAccess database to improve speed and accuracy in distributing
copies of plat and survey maps to county customers.
