Ever since my dad bought me a Commodore 64 (some years back) I have been hooked to programming. For most of my working career I have worked intensely with C# (WinForms and WPF) but a few years back I started to investigate browser technologies and frameworks which are much more powerful than I thought at first!

I studied International Marketing but found the IT sector much more challenging. So straight from uni I took on some IT contract work in London in a buoyant market and never looked back.
