About Me

I'm an Oxford University Computer Science graduate and current DPhil (a.k.a. PhD) student with an enthusiastic desire to write computer games professionally. I'm looking for a job as a programmer to follow my DPhil (ideally starting August-September 2011).

I started writing games at school at the same time as some similarly-minded friends (age 14), and have been writing games and game-related programs as a hobby ever since. I retain interests in level design (I wrote my own 3D level editor) and modelling (I created the animated 3D models for my latest game), but I'm primarily a programmer (I've been writing code in one form or another since I was 9).

In my spare time, I enjoy playing piano, electric guitar and clarinet, and spending time with friends. I also enjoy ballroom dancing, swimming, squash and tennis.
