So Nice to Meet You!

I’m a mom of two, and I’ve been doing this working parent thing for almost six years. During that time, my husband has had various travel and evening positions, so I’ve learned how to streamline as much as possible. I have a PhD in Economics and work as a consulting manager for a large software company. I specialize in life improvements that add value – and knowing when the effort outweighs the benefit! I can read an academic paper and crunch my own numbers. I value smart decision making and want to help parents focus on the core of parenting. From quick, actionable tips to more in-depth pieces, it’s all here. Dive in, connect with us, and live your best working parent life!
