I live in Cambridge England, and have since 1996. I have a very nice husband, Simon, and two great kids, Ellen and Luke. Our pets are all wet: fish, shrimps, and aquatic snails, although Ellen would love to have a pet that is furry.
In 2000 I started working for a small startup called Tenison Tech EDA. We produced something called VTOC, for "Verilog TO C", which takes a hardware design written in Verilog, and transforms it into a cycle-accurate C model that can be used for developing software or for testing your hardware. (If that doesn't make any sense, don't worry. Suffice to say that VTOC is a piece of software and I'm a software engineer.) In June 2007 we were bought by ARC International, our office became the Cambridge branch of ARC, and VTOC became part of the ARC software suite. This was very good for me, both because it means that my job is now much more secure, and I get to expand my horizons. I'm still a software engineer (hey, I figure, stick to what you're good at), but now I am working on getting VTOC better integrated into the rest of the ARC software rather than directly developing VTOC as I have been doing all these years.
