Born in Glasgow and raised in Manchester I've been a geek for most of my life.
I studied Artificial intelligence at university in Birmingham before spending five years as a broadcast and communications engineer for the BBC in Belfast and then back in Birmingham. I moved back to Manchester in Summer 2007 to be with my fiancee and after a false start or two I found my home at Setfire Media.
Outside of work I love travelling, unicycling and DIY. I also have a great love for animals, with a flat that has literally become a zoo in the past few months with the addition of a hamster, a rabbit, two guinea pigs, three fish, two shrimp and a clam.
I also have quite a strong environmental conscience and am trying to help in my small way with my environmental website http://www.futurefootprint.co.uk
