Karen Jex

Karen was a database administrator for over 20 years and was once described as “quite personable for a DBA”, which she decided to take as a compliment! She’s now a Senior Solutions Architect at Crunchy Data, helping her customers to design and manage their (PostgreSQL) database environments.

Karen gives talks about databases at PostgreSQL and developer conferences because she loves sharing knowledge. She is a PostgreSQL Europe board member and conference organiser, and chairs the PostgreSQL Europe Diversity Committee.
