I'm wondering what's everybody's background on the forum and thought it might be interesting to have a thread where everyone could share his background and experience. This way we could all have a better idea about who we are communicating with and the various career progressions that are possible. Of course everyone can share as much or as little as he/she wants and keep it anonymous.
So I'll start off, even though I might be the least experienced member at this forum :)
