I'm a software consultant working in Embedded Linux. I live and work out of Yorkshire in the UK however I have clients in numerous places including LA, The Bay (Silicon Valley), Toronto and spend about a third of my life travelling or away from home. My last trip to the US was actually a canyoneering vacation in Utah! Typically I develop in C, C++ and Java; although I also develop in PHP and Objective C. I am quite active in the PHP community and I am member of PHP Women and a PECL maintainer. I am also a member of DevChix and LinuxChix and have just helped create a northern England LinuxChix chapter (<a href="http://www.linuxchixnorth.org.uk/" target="_blank">http://www.linuxchixnorth.org.uk/</a>). I've been using Ubuntu for several years now as my dev platform of choice. My web site is at <a href="http://www.cyberspice.org.uk/" target="_blank">http://www.cyberspice.org.uk/</a> (Basically I'm cyberspice nearly everywhere - just google me). </blockquote><div> Again Welcome to the team!!!
