Projects

I really love experimenting with social media and collaborative technologies. This page contains links and descriptions of my many virtual exploits.

SoccerNYC.org: This is my true labor of love. I started this project in November of 2007 and easy to say running this website has taken over my life. It is a Drupal powered community site about soccer in the city featuring: pickups, leagues, gear, pubs that show soccer and a mailing list. The community is currently 500 users and growing.

Are you a Soccer Field?: Springtime in the city is hard on a soccer player, lots of people want to play and there are not enough places to play. So in honor of this seasonal frustration I created this Google Map. The map contains placemarks on every bit of turf, grass or dirt I could find in the five boroughs (the Bronx is still under construction). So now you can go find yourself another patch of grass!

About me:

Metadata and Taxonomies are my thing. I spend an awful lot of time drinking coffee and having existential dilemmas on how to categorize what the hell I do for a living.

Nerdy things I blog about for other nerdy nerds: metadata and taxonomies, Digital Asset Management and Content Management (DAM/CMS), technology transitions and business change, professional development, social media privacy, and usability for information retrieval.

Nutshell: I'm an ex-BMXer that now knows a helluva a lot about metadata and taxonomies and spends her idle time picking locks, lurking 7chan, playing competitive soccer, wishing she was in an impromptu music video, or teaching people to ride a Segway at HOPE. Yup, that's how I roll (literally).
