I have a background as a software engineer, with a degree in architecture, having served time as a graphic designer, animator, and hardware tinkerer. This places me at the intersection of technology, art, and commerce where I specialize in solving highly complex problems with profitable technology that presents end users with beauty, elegance, and simplicity. My work falls into four categories. — Leadership. I provide technical stewardship at executive level as part time CTO. My role is to increase the value of the technology of companies, and make them more attractive to investors and acquirers. — Physical computing. I tend to work on projects with a mixture of innovative hardware and software, with as much time spent with Raspberry Pis, Arduinos, and soldering irons, as writing code. — Creative concepts. I’m often hired to help conceive creative concepts as part of agency pitches, and organizations looking to increase their competitive advantage. I bring a deep understanding of legacy & cutting edge technologies, market trends, and the experience to help ensure ideation sessions bear fruit. — Public speaking. I’ve been a speaker at conferences and corporate events for more than 15 years, on topics with bias towards innovation through creative use of technology, and often labelled as motivational.
