A Few Words about Myself...

I became fascinated with computer programming from the first time I saw a computer – a ZX81. How can you create something (software) from nothing? How can you force a computer to become a musical instrument, a clerk’s tool for writing letters, or a control box in your washing machine?

Soon after this discovery I began studying programming at a secondary school, then at a local university and then I taught computer related courses at the university for over a decade.

At the start of my career I supported myself by working as a programmer. Later on I decided that programming is actually more fun than teaching about programming, so I became a programmer again.
