Netherlands
An English man living in the Netherlands since 1996. I've been working in ICT since I was 19 (a long time ago). First working on mainframes and later on back-office applications. Since 1999 I've been working in Data Warehousing and Business Intelligence, with the last 5 years focussed on Analytics and AI. I joined Joomla! as a volunteer in 2015 and have been involved since then in the Certification Team.

I built my first website on 2007 using static HTML pages. After spending too much time making changes I stumbled upon Joomla!, then still version 1. When version 1.5 came out I jumped in and have never looked back.
In 2009 I started visiting the Joomla Day in the Netherlands and have only missed one since. In 2015 I decided I wanted to give something back to Joomla! and volunteerd. I joined the Certification Team, firstly dealing with the 'English' texts and soon got fully involved. A great experience within a great community!
