My name is Edward Awad. Most people call me Eddie. I currently live and work in Portland, Oregon, U.S.A. I have been developing applications in Oracle since 1994. In addition to Oracle, I have been writing web and B2B applications using ColdFusion, BizTalk and the Oracle SOA suite.

I was born in Baalbeck, Lebanon and immigrated to the United States of America in 1998. I became a US citizen in 2007. I am married to Jasmine, who happened to be from Shanghai, China. We have two children, George and Julie.
