About Me...
I'm a graduate electronic
engineer who has spent all of his working life in the computer
industry.
I started out with hardware
design for a mainframe manufacturer, before moving to low-level
assembly and micro-code programming. Taking various promotion
opportunities saw me working for a time on the European Space Agency
program in Darmstadt, West Germany) and later as area manager for
ICL Dataskil responsible for the small to medium operating systems
and consultancy.
Since then I've worked as
Technical Director and General Manager of several small to medium
size firms, before setting up my own hardware/software design
company which now focuses on the Legal software market in the UK.
Our Legis-3 product is seen as one of the best of its type, and is
used by some of the major players in the Uninsured Loss Recovery and
Personal Injury fields.
Hobbies...
When I'm not glued to a PC or
notebook, I have a keen interest in flying model airplanes - from
fun-fly to gas-turbines, and more recently started learning to fly
model helicopters. For more details - go here.
After years of listening to
Kenny G playing the saxophone, I recently bought a soprano sax and
am currently learning how to play. I also bought a keyboard to allow
recording of midi backing tracks. For more details - go
here.
I'm also keen on performance
cars, and even bikes. Go here to see some of my recent machines
