About Me

She currently has visited or lived in 18 countries* and now resides in Florida with her husband, daughter and their 2 Belgian Malinois. While working as a MySQL Support Engineer for Oracle, she still manages to stay actively involved with the PHP Community as a founding Principle of phpwomen.org, administrator at codewalkers.com, blogger and long-time busy body of the PHPCommunity channel (#phpc) on freenode. She hopes to one day actually meet all the people she talks to. Now for all the letters – ZCE (PHP4&5), CMDBA, CMDEV and MySQL Core.
