Singing, playing, composing and recording music on guitar, bass, keyboards and computers.

Acting

Playing Antonio in 'Gondoliers' in 2007 was my introduction to Gilbert & Sullivan, which was shortly followed by a stint in the Farndale Mikado. I previously appeared as Algernon in Oscar Wilde's 'The Importance of Being Earnest', in Romeo & Juliet on Brownsea Island and in Agatha Christie's Witness for the Prosecution with the Castle Players. He is mostly a member of S.C.R.A.P. and the Wand'ring Minstrels.

I hope to take on more acting roles in the near future.

Art

Computer Art, Drawing and painting.  If you'd like to see some of my work, please visit the gallery.

Programming

This may be slightly obvious, but hacking code is something I enjoy.

Cooking/eating

I love home cooking, so I have to be able to cook.   Favorite dish...  Lasagne.

Diving

Recently learned to SCUBA dive, and passed my PADI open water certification in Umkomaas, South Africa.

Exercise and fitness

Canoeing is probably my favourite way to de-stress after a prolonged coding experience.  I also try to juggle (up to four balls so far).
