About

My name is Snow Tempest. Yes, that is my real name.

I have worked in the fields of technology, journalism, literature, and public service organizations. I have analyzed, investigated, and made things happen.

Sometimes I also do some creative writing. (But if you found a fan fiction profile, that one is not me!)

Some sample accomplishments:

  • Managed the interface text for a major cybersecurity product
  • Created an email newsletter for executives in nonprofit organizations and published monthly issues for three years
  • Raised over $2.4 million in grant funds for various organizations
  • Conducted usability research and updated user impact research plan for a civic technology organization devoted to improving life in Los Angeles
  • Published blog posts to increase adoption of key features and help customers address zero-day vulnerabilities
  • Worked as part of multi-functional teams to develop new software features from planning to release
  • Conducted research and planning for a technology training program for nonprofit organizations
  • Rewrote the help file for a new version of a software product
  • Published technical articles on software-related topics from importing files to developing regular expressions
  • Served as a columnist for Princeton’s campus newspaper
  • Published journalism in Inc.com, LAist.com, Durham (NC) Herald-Sun, and other publications
