About

Programmed a lot in my school days, worked in chemistry, then went back to college and retrained as a chemical engineer.

Most recently worked as a heat transfer engineer on power station boilers and refinery furnaces. Currently looking for a new opportunity.

Learned C with a view to using an Arduino to control a contraption I am building. Learned Ruby for this site among other things. Hoping to learn Javascript (and maybe even its very distant cousin Java.)
