onjour! It's amazing what a play on words can convey. My name is April (aka the month after 'mars' - or March if English is your native language).
By day, I'm a Principal Cloud Advocate at Microsoft. I lead our Strategic Bets focus areas (Gaming, Green, Rust, and Spatial Computing). Speaking of Spatial Computing, it's my primary area of . Essentially everything under the umbrella of Extended Reality (XR) is what I'm rather passionate about - the other being AI assistants and chat bots. Isn't it amazing that we can talk to computers?
Anywho, I started this website/portfolio to do a better job at keeping track of things I create. I've created a lot. And I continue to create a lot because it's rather difficult to sit still and do nothing.
As of late, I'm into pottery, learning French, shoe making, sewing, calligraphy, painting with watercolors, 3D modeling, world building, LEGO animation, and bookbinding.
I've authored 2 technical books and used to work in luxury fashion as a menswear stylist and visual merchandiser. As for school, I'm a SCAD Bee - hence the fashionable creative bones in my body.
