Johan Åhlén, President
Johan har över 12 års erfarenhet av SQL Server sedan version 6.5 som konsult och företagare inom IT-branschen. Huvudinriktning är Business Intelligence, men sysslar med det mesta som är Microsoft- eller utvecklingsrelaterat. Är SQL Server MVP samt certifierad MCITP på SQL Server 2005 & 2008. Följer med intresse allt som rör sig i teknikens framkant. Bor i Skåne med fru och en dotter. Fritiden ägnas åt bland annat husrenovering och att traktera Bechstein-flygeln (som tidigare tillhört musikkändisen Östen Warnerbring). Hoppas att genom SQLug.se stifta nya trevliga bekantskaper.
