Deborah grew up in east-central Ohio. She started her career in sales after graduating from Ohio University.

Her first personal desktop computer was a Gateway; her first job was working on a help desk and was promoted to network administrator. In 2010, she switched out her equipment for an iPhone, iPad, and MacBook Pro. She later added a MacBook Air for travel, a HomePod, 3 HomePod Minis, an Apple Watch, and, of course, Air Tags.
