IT worker from Belfast, Northern Ireland.

I studied Computing and IT at the University of Ulster.

I am a hobbyist in the fields of history and politics, an aspiring writer, and a guitarist with an interest in popular music. My interest in history and politics covers specifically British and Irish history, ancient and modern, while my interest in popular music includes 'pop', rock, 'indie' and blues.

I also have interests in Formula 1 motor sport, physics and technology, computers and typical geeky things that many Generation X people have.
