Elisa's Story
Life:
Divorced after nearly 24 years of marriage.
My Pets
Currently I have two dogs, Xena, a 11 yr old Belgian Sheepdog and Zeva an 9 rr. old Belgian Tervuren/German Shepherd mix. They are both rescues. They keep me entertained.
My Job
I'm on the User Experience Team at CA Technologies as a design researcher/usability specialist/ interaction designer, following similar positions for Texas Instruments, Perot Systems (now Dell), and GE healthcare.
Prior to that, I worked for a couple of years as a part-time substitute teacher, as a result of major layoffs from Scient - an ebusiness consulting company.
My Life: I've been able to take advantage of interesting opportunities that landed in my lap - they have taken me from Austin to Georgia, New Jersey back to Texas. I've settled down a bit - bought a house in N. Dallas, visiting the ...Expand for more
nieces and nephews in Plano.
My outside activities:
I'm very involved in UXPA (User Experience Professionals Assn) - completed three years on the international board of directors as Director of Professional Development. Now involved in the annual salary survey.
College
I received a BA in journalism in 1977 from the U. of Arizona in Tucson.
I earned my MA in instructional technology from the U. of Texas at Austin in 1987.
I had hoped to complete my PhD in 1997, but no go.. I got caught up in the internet fever - started working as a webmaster in 1995. I managed to finish my coursework in information science at Drexel U in Philadelphia and even completed the first draft of a dissertation proposal - which was shot down. I may go back and try again, now that I have a real understanding of research... and know that I could do it better!
