Hi,I'm the newest addition to the Synchro32 team, I have now been working for 9 months as a developer, how time flies!
Having been in the IT industry for the past 23yrs producing software for many different markets the past 10yrs has been Virgin Media, my first job was at Dewtec where I worked for 9yrs alongside Chris, Simon and Tom Millar.
Dewtec is also where I met my wife (who worked as the receptionist/secretary for 9yrs). We have been together for 18yrs and happily married for the past 10yrs. Having 2 children, James Age 6 and Amelia Age 4 definitely keeps us both on our toes!
My passions in life are of course my family, but also, Skiing or Snowboarding, the last couple of Holidays have been Snowboarding but I felt a bit of an old codger in the Boarding Classes, so I might go back to skiing this year, I enjoy the better low speed control also.
I play Squash, Sudoku, Xbox 360 (currently still trying to finish GTA IV) and when I have a quiet moment (which doesn't seem to be that often since having the children) I like to read Science Fantasy Books, my favourite authors being Terry Brooks, Robert Jordan, Robin Hobb.
As a family we are into caravanning ( I know, I know, I hate being stuck behind them too!) and own a now rather old/disintegrating, but loveable caravan and have enjoyed many hols down Exmouth. The kids love it as they have a certain amount of freedom when away, which they can't necessarily have at home.
I've followed Formula 1 most of my life and am a fan of all British Drivers, the final race of this season was fantastic, my heart was racing it's way out of my chest, what a showdown, although I have to say the booing from the 'fans' was very unsporting. One of my ambitions is to go to a European Race, maybe next year I may get the chance to achieve this.
