After 18 years in the IT Industry I became enamored with the Independent Living Movement nearly 7 years ago, when I met the staff during IT project collaboration. The mission and its importance was so impactful that I decided to dedicate myself to the mission statement and future of the Center for Independent Living in Berkeley, CA. My role with CIL as the Chief Information Officer is to ensure all Information Systems are efficient and secure, so that our amazing team is able to reach consumers with confidence anytime.
