I was born in 1970.

My first computer experience dates back to early 80s, with a Sinclair ZX81.
From that time on, as many "friends" say, my IT-illness has increased year by year.

I graduated in Electronic Engineering and earned the following Microsoft certifications:
MCP, MCT, MCDBA, MCSD, MCAD, MCSD for .NET (early achiever).

I worked in IT as a developer, a teacher, a consultant, a technical writer, a technical leader.
IT knowledge applied to real life is my primary interest and focus.

I started out as a child. First, mastering drooling and sucking on a bottle. I soon discovered that these skills came to be very important later in life, and I put them to good use. Not "over the top" mind you, as I never drove home drunk. But, that damn bib catching my drool was getting in the way and turning the ladies away, so I had to abandon my strength and develop other skills.

So, I entered the world of geekdom. BASIC at first, then TMS9900 and Intel Assemblers, COBOL, C, C++, ...

... to be continued ...

I've worked in IT for 9 years now - mostly in the Microsoft space but with a little bit of Java, Oracle and Unix for good measure.

I've worked in .Net since beta 1 and don't really care whether I use VB.Net or C# - they're both pretty good to work with and a lot easier to use than VB6 or C++.

I'm from New Zealand but am currently working as a contract consultant in the UK.

I'm trying to get around to sitting the MCSD exams but I keep getting too busy. I'll get there eventually though.
