Biography

I’m a technology writer with two decades of experience in breaking down complex technology, and getting behind the news to help my readers get to grips with the latest buzzwords and industry milestones. I focus on helping readers use Open Source software in all sorts of environments, from the desktop to the data center and everything in between. In addition to my behind-the-desk writing, I’ve also done a fair bit of on-ground reporting. I’ve interviewed people from across a project’s assembly line. In addition to numerous developers of marquee open source projects, I have rummaged through the brains of visionaries like David Axmark (co-founder of the MySQL database), Brian Behlendorf (founder of the Apache web server), Brian Cameron, board member of the Gnome Foundation, Frederic Muller, president, Software Freedom International, Vincent Untz, Gnome 3 release manager, NIIBE Yutaka, chairman, Free Software Initiative of Japan, among others.
