Ashley Roach for Board 2012

I am Ashley Roach and I'm applying to be a member of the XMPP Board

History
I have been involved with XMPP since I joined Jabber, Inc. back in 2003 and stayed through Oct 2006. I joined as a Product Marketing Manager, and eventually was the Product Manager for the commercial Jabber XCP and JabberNow products. I've been at two startups, Jabber, Inc. and NewsGator. Currently, I work at Cisco Systems on XMPP-related products. I served on the XSF Board in 2011.

While I have primarily a formal business education, I've done programming in C# / WCF, Rails, Java, and Objective-C (iPhone).
