About Me
- Name: Sharon Cichelli
- Location: Austin, Texas, United States
I'm a writer who can code, or a coder who can write, depending on your biases. By day I create strategic software and dazzling PowerPoints using C#, ASP.NET, Oracle, and SQL Server. Oh, and PowerPoint. My mild-mannered alter ego maintains and tinkers with the PHP and MySQL behind a website providing print-and-play board games; I make up a few of the games, too. Driven to create applications that benefit my employer's customers, to make my users more efficient in their jobs, to write software of which I can be proud, I work every day to teach a large, opinionated, Gantt-chart-loving corporation to be agile. Two-thirds of my team sit on the far side of the planet. We use scrum because we believe, through practical experience, that it makes our projects more successful and our jobs more fun.
