PERSONAL STATEMENT -- I have been actively researching my family history & genealogical roots since February 2006. Ive extensively used the skills Ive gained as information professional to conduct genealogical research for myself, family & friends. My professional training has provided me with a strong foundation in the identification, selection, evaluation, and critical analysis of information resources. For my own family research, I utilize a web-based MySQL/PHP based program so that I may share my findings and research online www.taneya-kalonji.com/family.
