Career

– CIO – CTO – ADVISER – NXD – MENTOR – EDUCATOR –

 

I was lucky enough to be able to retire from main-stream employment at the age of thirty-seven. For the last thirteen years I have been advising startups and small businesses. More details can be found here.

NOTE: Between July 1997 and July 1994 I had six employers (Harrison Willis through to iRevolution PLC) as the project changed supplier. I consider these effectively one single role.
