Birmingham, United Kingdom

From the age of fifteen I’ve had a passion for creating software. I first started programming games in BASIC on an 8bit, 8k Atari 400. My early career progressed with the adoption and the evolution of the PC and the advent of spreadsheets, word processors and databases. At the age of twenty seven I was writing and customising applications for bespoke office systems using Borland’s Turbo C and Ashton-Tate’s Dbase. C evolved in to C++ and Dbase III became one of the most popular databases of its time along with Clipper. It was my skills in the much sort after C++ that allowed me to join BriTech IT services.
