This is where I share thoughts about the work I love and my ethos that “everything is an experiment,” a discovery opportunity.  I am a scientist by training and naturally curious.  When I started in technology, I was a programmer/analyst and then a consultant.  I enjoyed being a software tester for most of my career in software engineering. I did right for my stakeholders by understanding the technical landscape’s underpinnings and the diverse dimensions of how people define “quality.”  I have also confidently worn product/program owner and engineering manager hats. As of April 2024, I am looking for a product operations or customer experience opportunity that allows me to make a positive impact in people’s lives.

These bring me satisfaction:  fostering thriving and happy teams and delighting customers by delivering quality software and customer experiences that “Wow.”  I thrive on connection, collaboration, and learning.  I live in northwestern Montana.  I enjoy reading, cooking, yoga, open water swimming, and outdoor adventures with my husband and our 6-year-old English Lab. Thanks for stopping by.

Warm regards to you from the Land of Shining Mountains,
Lanessa Hunter
