Fulltime geek, part-time human. Pizza addict, cider expert. Coder, builder, mechanic, man! Available for birthdays and hen nights!
As project manager for Base, I get to work on many aspects of most projects, whether this be; initial concept ideas, actual development or user training. Chances are if we do business together at some point I’ll be making my mark on your project!
I really enjoy the wide range of areas my job allows me to focus on across the business because it keeps things fresh and challenging!
I’ve worked at Base since mid 2009 and in that have seen the company double in size and then relocate, I’m really excited to see what we will achieve in the next few years.
In my personal life I like to put my hands to most things, building things, destroying other things (sometimes the same things I’ve just built), working on open source projects, car mechanics, whatever!
Tunes you will likely hear coming from my desk will include but are not limited to Electro, Dubstep, Old School Blues and Jazz, The Adam and Joe Podcast, and any one of hundreds of audio books.
Things that if you haven’t watched I may forcible make watch so I can’t talk about them at length, in great details will include but are not limited to; Commando, Fantastic Mr Fox, Ironman, Transformers, Game of Thrones, Dexter, Doctor Who (old and new!) SuckerPunch, The Rock, and Emperor's New Groove.
I don’t particularly like coffee, but if you’re making tea, mines white with no sugar!

First off for those that don’t know what ‘Git’ is, I shall attempt to explain by cutting and pasting from someone cleverer than me;
Git is a free & open source, distributed version control system designed to handle everything from small to very large projects with speed and efficiency.
Every Git clone is a full-fledged repository with complete history and full revision tracking capabilities, not dependent on network access or a central server.
