Welcome to my home page!   I am the sole proprietor of Lia Adams Consulting. 

For twenty years, I have been working with software in Silicon Valley.  Since getting my PhD in Computer Science from Stanford University, I have designed and built new software, published research papers, gotten patents, and shipped successful products.  For details, check out my résumé for Technical communication and instruction in: HTML or PDF.

My experience in recent years has focused on the explanatory phases of a software project that I enjoy the most:

  • Observing work practice
  • Interviewing developers
  • Designing software
  • Documenting design, implementation, API
  • Giving demos and observing users
  • Teaching people how to use or extend software

You can also browse my favorite hobbies, outdoor activities, and volunteer organizations.
