About the Author
Linda Rawson is a technology entrepreneur, author, inventor, and C-level executive. Since 2006, she has owned and operated DynaGrace Enterprises, a Women-Owned Small Business in rural Morgan, Utah. DynaGrace Enterprises is family owned and has done many millions of dollars of federal government contracts. DynaGrace Enterprises provides innovative Information Technology, system integration, cybersecurity and writing services to government and commercial clients. Her background as a software engineer, combined with her corporate executive experience, merges the technical with the business world. Linda was born in a small farming community in Morgan, Utah. She was raised by a single mother who never went to college and did not have any dreams of owning her own business. She broke that mold and became a success in the business world. She started as a software engineer in the eighties when it was not common for a woman in Utah. She has exceeded expectations and never let various challenges and obstacles associated with being a woman impede upon her path to success. She occasionally speaks to groups of business owners on the climb from Country Girl to CEO. Last year she graduated from the Goldman Sach's 10,000 small businesses training, received an award for Davis/Morgan business of the year and wrote a very vulnerable book about grief. She is continually working on her latest invention, a compact, portable weather station called the WeatherEgg(TM). She loves to educate children about weather science through her coloring book, and adventures with her animated humanoid characters called the "WeatherEgg Kids." She finds balance in life by being very close to her family. She enjoys traveling and participating in outdoor activities like golf, hiking, and snowshoeing. She loves meteorology and is an amateur photographer. She also raises honey bees.
