Originally from Australia via the US and as of 2005 based in Edinburgh, Scotland, I am pleased to be part of the Open Source industry in the UK. I was co-founder of the Samba team and have been involved in many open source projects since.

I'm a consultant and offer services to large businesses in four roles:

  • Technologist, dealing with how chunks of technical functionality interact
  • Open Source Software specialist, deployment and development
  • Product Marketer, refining products for computing, defence and high-tech markets
  • Virtualisation specialist, bringing mainframe approaches to business computing

I have worked with many companies from Cable and Wireless Optus, Hewlett-Packard, Fujitsu-Siemens ICL and Westpac Bank through to large government and quasi-government bodies. I also enjoy growing small companies to service these big ones with interesting new products, and have worked in several startup operations in three different countries.
