About Me

I live in Edinburgh and work full time as a freelance writer and editor. I have a number of websites and work for various clients in print and on the web. I am passionate about technology, especially mobile phones and I'm currently developing apps and games for the Android platform. Before that I worked in the games industry where I started out as a games tester at VIS Entertainment working on titles like State of Emergency then I worked for Outerlight as a producer and game designer on titles like The Ship.

I still have a passionate obssession with gaming. When I'm not working or gaming I like to surf. I'm also a big fan of horror movies.
