Kirsten Jones
About: Kirsten Jones was found in a basket at OSCON and brought back to a cave to be raised by a band of brilliant savages. Under the watchful eye of truculent developers and BOFHs she sharpened her saw by moving data from here ... heh ... to here. She now strides the world as an international expert in getting stuff done.
She's the current webmaster for The Perl Foundation, and works at Applied Minds creating prototype web applications for the creative geniuses therein. She has a recently-resurrected blog at http://www.perlgoddess.com/ and can be reached at synedra@gmail.com.
