Welcome to my realm of work, life, and delightful chaos. I’m Celeste aka Tech Mim, your chief chaos coordinator for this adventure. Let me share a glimpse into my diverse journey. I’m a devoted wife, proud mom of four mostly grown adults, and a furry friend enthusiast. My path includes military service, roles as a PTA mom, Girl Scout and Cub Scout mom, and even crafting BSA merit badges. Amidst this, I’ve carved my niche in the dynamic technology landscape, navigating diverse roles in both large and small companies.

Tech, from expansive world-changing projects to smaller companies with IPO dreams, has been my canvas. As a leader, I’ve steered organizations through growth, adaptation, and market shifts. Amid the chaos, I’ve honed my skills as a coach and mentor, a role I cherish.

On these pages, I aim to share the invaluable lessons I’ve learned along the way. I often imparted these same lessons to my teams and leaders. From finding balance in a 24/7 culture to staying true to oneself during challenging times like layoffs or family crises, I’ll explore when to express vulnerability and when to stand resilient. These are lessons we learn but often lack the opportunity to share. Join me on this journey through the ever-changing tech landscape, where I aspire to share, guide, and find joy in the midst of chaos.
