Cara Michele Ryan
Hi. I studied graphic design in college but changed careers to web development. Aside from my day job as a developer, I run a tabletop game design company called Water Bear Games with my cousin Marcus and I run a meetup called Side Projects Club where we meet every other Saturday to work on our side projects. I also like writing and drawing. I do a lot of things. 😰 (And I use this emoji too much.)
Fun Fact: My favorite TV show is the original run of Twilight Zone.

I joined Unabridged in June 2019 and spend my free time playing guitar and caring for my plants. I hail from a mystical land known to some as "Wisconsin". I grew up in a home above one cheese factory and below another. A daughter of the man portrayed in the award-winning movie "Why Wasn't I Born Rich?", I followed in my father's footsteps by also not being born rich. I resolved that situation by becoming a founding member of the short-lived but wildly successful rock band Los Operadores, but lost my fortune betting on the Orlando Magic to win the 2012 NBA championship. I disappeared into the forests of the Driftless Area for a time afterward. When I emerged, I heard Unabridged's call and answered, journeying to Nebraska to join their ranks.

Formerly a teacher of young children, I transitioned to software development after my daughter was born. I love teaching, learning, and solving problems. I enjoy playing music and Go, and am learning to speak my native Lakota language.
Fun Fact: I started programming with LOGO turtle graphics on an Apple II.
