I grew up in the wonderful city of Hull where I discovered that I quite liked science and that I wasn't very good at playing the piano.
In 2004 I arrived at Nottingham University. Three years later I graduated with a degree in Physics, a beard and a taste in music. Along the way, I found out that making websites was quite good fun...
Since 2008, I've been working as a web developer for UCCF: The Christian Unions. I spend most of my days coding PHP and MySQL, templating with Smarty and writing standards-compliant HTML and CSS.
I'm drinking Earl Grey and listening to music, preferably. I also like strolling in the countryside, riding my bike and watching cricket in the sunshine.
I know which way up a mixing desk goes, and I've run the big-screen visuals at a couple of fairly large conferences. I also know how to grow a potato, fix a puncture and make a camera obscura.
