About

I’m a 38 year old Senior Programmer living in Cambridge, England. I’ve been doing this programming lark for a long time, working in finance for 5 years (programming, systems analysis and database design) before moving over to games programming in April 1993.

First job in games was for Millennium Interactive Ltd, who became Sony Computer Entertainment Europe (Cambridge) in July 1997. Specialising in shared library development & hardware level programming, I stayed there until December 2000, when I left to join some friends at a startup company called ‘Just Add Monsters Ltd.’, who now go by the name of ‘Ninja Theory Ltd.’.

In November 2003 I had one of those ‘offer you can’t refuse’ things happen, and subsequently rejoined SCEE to work in their Advanced Technology Group, working on software for what has eventually become the PlayStation 3. Although I’m based in Cambridge, the nature of my work means that occasionally I have to commute into London.
