Here's my CV.

Throughout my career I've been fortunate enough to work with a wide variety of technologies, through a mix of in-house work and consultancy. Most of my time has been spent within the financial sector in the UK and EU. I've also done some customer-facing product work and dabbled in the health and energy sectors.

Trivia

My outside of work hobby is building Halloween decorations. I like to do something different every year - check out the past years on my Halloween sub-site.
In my youth I would have said I'm a huge fan of metal music. Don't get me wrong, I am, but later in life I've come to acknowledge that the cheesy stuff is just as good.
