I’m a software consultant specializing in practice, process, test driven development, and complex-adaptive systems-thinking. I’m 33 years old (hex) and I’ve loved software since I was 10 (decimal). I built cyber-dojo.org to promote deliberate practice for software developers. I’ve worked with Accenture, Aviva, Cisco, Ericsson, Friends Provident, HP, Microsoft, Opera, Ordnance Survey, RBS, Reuters, Renault F1, Schlumberger, Tandberg and many many more. If you don’t like my work I won’t invoice you. I’m the co-author (with Olve Maudal) of the Deep C/C++ slide deck (over 1,000,000 views) I’m the ex ECMA Task Group 2 C# convenor. I’ve had some C# books published. I’m the ex ACCU conference chairman. I’m married to the beautiful Natalie, and proud father of Ellie, Penny and Patrick. I love salmon fishing. I live in Somerset, England.
