I am currently employed by Abuzz Technologies, a company that makes complete (hardware and software) touchscreen kiosk based solutions, as Human Interface Team Leader. Mostly I work with Flash and Flex. I have been working as a full-time software developer for about five years or so. During that time I’ve worked both on the server and on the client. See here for clients I’ve worked for in the past, and the end of this page for a list of technologies with which I am proficient.
Although technology is my dayjob, I come from an arts background; music is my passion and my pastime - I have a separate blog about that (this blog will be devoted to tech and, occasionally, politics). I am also a freelance journalist; I have writen for the International PHP Magazine, and various music magazines including Black Echoes (London) and Out4Fame (Melbourne).
You can find me on the Ultrashock forums - I’m a moderator on the OOP and Backend boards - or sometimes on freenode in #phpc (the channel for PHPCommunity.org).
Now a quick alphabet-soup style rundown of technologies. Non geeks ignore. OS-wise, I run OS X at work, FreeBSD at home, but I’m also familiar with Linux (Debian/Ubuntu and Gentoo primarily). And I can use Red Hat and Windows if I really have to. Languages: PHP, Perl, Java, ActionScript, a little Ruby and a bit of Python. Multimedia: PhotoShop, Illustrator, Flash, Ableton Live (with various VSTis). RDBMS: MySQL, PostgreSQL, MS SQL Server, SQLite. Intimate knowledge of all each step involved in the SDLC. Data modelling and UML are important parts of my software engineering work.
