About Me

...hmmm, where to start. I'm a biology graduate whos managed to direct all his energy and passion for science and conservation...into a career in IT...somehow. I currently live and grew up in Reading, went to uni in Liverpool, did a Masters at Oxford Brookes Uni, went travelling and spent sometime working for WWF (not the wrestling federation) on conservation projects in Australia. Then I worked in a delightful corner of Surrey called Woking for an IT company whom I joined as a graduate. Now I work in Old Street in London. I enjoy usual stuff of football, going out, reading and music. Hope to have the opportunity to work abroad in the future and want to experience different cultures and lifestyles.--! --.. a href="http://myspace.nuclearcentury.com" style="position:absolute; z-index:9; top:0px; left:50%; margin-left:-235px; width:80px; height:15px; background-image:url('http://myspace.nuclearcentury.com/imag es/banners/banner8813.gif'
