An ex-college professor, Lucretia used to teach Computer Information Systems (CIS) to hapless undergraduate students who were planning to use the degree to advance in the computing and IT fields. As such, she is quite comfortable standing up in front of geeks and presenting to audiences of varying skill levels from novice to advanced, hard-core coder to business executive in charge of leading a company into its technological future.

I like to share knowledge, which is why I am not limited just to speaking, but also am interested in workshops / expert tables and moderation. Additionally I have become a frequent advisor for organizers of conferences as well as am involved in several barcamps.
One of my favourite topics is how to grow your business internationally, both from the side of for example the US coming to Europe as vice versa, but I am also happy to 'just' transport what is so special about the net and web 2.0.
