I found my spiritual home in the web after escaping telesales in 1995. Getting involved that early has meant that I've covered the full range of roles from programming and server management through design and user experience to content and strategy development - which is what I do now.

I'm head of strategy within the digital arm of Imagination (http://www.imagination.com), a global communications company, and focus on using technology to help our clients to engage their audiences appropriately and innovatively with the best technology available.

Former embedded systems specialist and Ruby geek. I've built cockpit satellite navigation and moving map systems, automation systems for broadcast media and all manner of weird network applications.

There was also a brief and frustrating career teaching developers how to build flexible, powerful, mission-critical systems on a budget based on my experience with avionics certification. I loathe bureaucracy, methodology and anything else that distracts from true agility.
