Michelle Finch - David Veitch
Michelle spent the past 5 years in computer networking, technical writing and training. She is also one of the writers of a gadgets column that appears across Canada in Sun Media newspapers.
Michelle is usually found wandering the mountains just outside her hometown of Calgary, Alberta. When trapped in the city, especially in winter, she can be found in front of the TV screaming at NHL players and refs, hacking away at her iBook, loading up her iPod with her latest batch of CDs, reading up on local history, or just plain reading.
