Grig Gheorghiu’s Summary

I have 15+ years industry experience, time in which I worked as a programmer, research lab manager, system/network/security architect, IT consultant and lead test engineer.

I am a huge fan of agile development and testing, and I maintain a blog <http://agiletesting.blogspot.com> dedicated to Python programming, system administration and automated testing tools and techniques.

I am involved in various Open Source projects and I am an active member of the Python and agile testing communities. I have participated in the last several PyCon conferences and I have given presentations and tutorials on testing topics.

I am the founder of the SoCal Piggies Python Interest Group (<http://socal-piggies.org>) and I am a member of the xpsocal Extreme Programming group.

I like to believe that a fortune cookie I once got is right: my mind is creative, original and alert.
