  • After graduating from Auckland University with a Master of Science degree with First Class Honours in Mathematics, he worked for two years at IBM before going to Great Britain for "Overseas Experience", initially for a planned duration of maximum two years. After leaving Britain, he took a consulting job in Germany before returning to New Zealand, which, for various reasons, never eventuated. In Germany, he took permanent employment as a technical consultant. In this role, he has published many practical computing-related books and presented many technical sessions at various international computing conferences. Since retiring from IT, he has continued working (and part-time beforehand) as freelance translator from German to English specialising in technical subjects (primarily software-related, which nowadays also concerns technical products). With his experience as author, he recently published a book with translators as primary audience in which he demystifies regular expressions ("Practical Usage of Regular Expressions - An introduction to regexes for translators").

  • Because home cooking is in danger of becoming a lost art, he has started holding cookery classes at the local adult education facility - with special emphasis on the Asian cuisine.
  • My "memoirs" contain a more detailed CV ("My life under the influence of travel" - ISBN: 978-1095721001).
