@pdevaal

I have been working as an Oracle professional since 1992, after having worked in science (1989 PhD physical organic chemistry at Leiden University, the Netherlands, and chimie quantique at the university of Strasbourg, France). It brought me to places such as Mumbai (India), Minneapolis (MI) and Greenville (SC) in the USA and many European countries. And the industries where I could apply my skills ranged from airport baggage handling to chemistry, food industry, hospitals, banking and insurance, governmental institutions etc. Outside my working hours I have two other passions: riding bicycles (MTB and race) and playing the card game bridge.
