About
G'day,
I'm an Australian based coder, hacker, tinkerer, maker, and voider of most things software and hardware.
My path to geekery was first paved by an introduction to Dick Smith's Funway into Electronics on my 11th birthday and from there things just escalated – rather quickly.
After completing high school I spent a little more than a decade in the Royal Australian Air Force where I was formally educated in binary and the way of the electron. Forged by discpiline, commitment, determination and perseverenace; my military service certainly provided the foundation for how I now approach life.
Throughout my career, I have enjoyed many opportunities including: capability research and development, software engineering, scientifc trial design and management, rapid prototyping, systems integration and many more.
Whether it's building web services, prototyping hardware, composing operating systems and software stacks or designing websites and frontends; I them all.
