This record ran to fourteen hundred words about "authentic community development" without a date, figure, quotation or source. Her own public statements contain all four, and one of them corrects a story that gets told about her.
What She Actually Built
She founded Ministry of Testing in 2007, a community for software testers, and in her own words "bootstrapped that to $1.5M annual revenue over 10 years". She has worked in tech since around 2000, starting as a software tester herself.
On what happened next she is precise, and the precision matters: "I still (co)own, but don't run the business day to day." Elsewhere she puts it more bluntly. "I handed this community over for someone else to run (I did not sell it)."
That distinction is worth preserving rather than smoothing into "built and sold", which is the shape this database usually encounters. Handing over operations while retaining ownership is a different decision with different incentives, and she has taken the trouble to correct people about it.
Since Then
She led community at Indie Hackers for a couple of years, then at Orbit, and founded Rosieland, a community and newsletter for community builders. She also started Indiependent, a small founders' community she describes as one where people get removed for inactivity. An unusually unsentimental design choice from someone whose subject is belonging.
The Honest Limit
What she teaches is community building, which is slow, unglamorous and hard to attribute. A reader looking for a revenue mechanism will not find one here; the case for her is a decade of running a real community to $1.5M rather than a method she can hand over. The record's existing note that this will not suit everyone stays, and is more meaningful now that there is something specific behind it.
