  Mr. PERLMUTTER. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to applaud Michelle Poolet

performance tuning, database architecture and data modeling. She has 
created and delivered courseware on all facets of database systems for 
academic environments and corporate training facilities. Michelle has 
been part of IT and database management systems since 1965, on 
computers ranging from mainframes to PCs and beyond. She pioneered the 
computer programming world in the Master of Computer Information 
Systems program at the University of Denver and as a Zachman-Certified 
Enterprise Architect.
   Michelle has been teaching and training since 1989 as adjunct 
faculty at the University of Denver and as a technical trainer with 
ProTech and UCI/AmeriTeach. She is the author of 13 books, almost 200 
database articles, and innumerable white papers and blog posts on 
database design and programming. Michelle's technological endeavors 
make it easier and quicker for businesses to progress in the modern age
