I have been writing code since I was 12 - I started with BASIC on a Commodore VIC-20. First computer I owned was a Sinclair ZX-81 on which I progressed to programming Z80 assembler by the time I was 13. I consider programming to be a lifetime learning experience.

Most of my professional experience has been programming in C and Java primarily in the networking and communications arena. But in the early years there was Pascal and COBOL (gasp!), and for the last 15 or so years there has been a fair amount of iSeries CLP and RPG.

My hobby activities are mostly in Java, but I enjoy experimenting with Haskell and JavaScript.

On the markup side of things I have had to learn a working knowledge of HTML, CSS and various dialects of XML.
