I live in the United Kingdom and work for a large consumer finance organisation as a Lead Developer. This means I split my team between programming and leading a team of developers, QA engineers and analysts. I am also responsible for the architecture of some of the company’s key systems, especially around our web services infrastructure.

On a more personal note, I have been married since 2004 to Amanda. As well as putting up with me, we have 2 great children; Amy, who is nearly 4 and Daniel who is under 1.

As well as software development, I am an avid musician and I run a small electronic music label and sound design company called Haunted House Records. For the geeks amongst us, I developed the site myself. It is a custom Content Management System developed in C# using ASP.NET MVC.
