                      99% of my work is in Formula 1 which is pretty good although keeps me on my toes.
                      Used to work on the refit of Royal Navy ships and Submarines too which was really interesting.

                                Some high fliers on here!

                                I'm in a sort of purgatory: background as a web developer, evolved into somewhat of a web jack-of-all-trades, most recently for the National Media Museum / Science Museum. Left there last year, been freelancing while I work on a new venture.
