Hi, I'm Amanda. I'm an experience artisan and technologist who believes the best solutions come from understanding people first and systems second.

From overhauling enterprise software to coaching a winning soccer season, I bring the same care to every challenge — listen closely, think creatively, and build something that actually works for the people using it.
