Oracle ACE Director, OakTable, President SYM42 Martin has been working with Oracle databases for about as long as Luiza Nowak has been alive – so he’s pretty bored with Oracle by now. Martin fell into working with computers as he was not safe to be left alone in a biological laboratory. He eventually became quite good at database design, PL/SQL, & Oracle performance and has been presenting on these topics for 20 or so years. He claims he is retired but he keeps turning up to conferences and tweeting about “my stupid current client just did this…” Martin likes beer, cats, user groups, and science.
