I am a PHP developer from Athens, Greece. I've been publishing Joomla extensions since 2006. You probably know me as the author of Akeeba Backup and Admin Tools. I am happily married to a fellow geek and have a daughter. We also have two pet cats. Or the cats have three pet humans. Jury's out on that one.

I came to the Free and Open Source Software (FOSS) back in the late 90s for the community and its core ideology of sharing knowledge and code. FOSS has enriched my life, it is providing me with my livelihood, it gave me some of my closest friends and helped me meet my better half and soulmate. I am trying to give back to the world by sharing my software and the things I learn.
