Professional Geek! I take ideas and turn them into real products.

I have been writing software since 14 and worked in the product design industry since finishing a degree in Physics. I enjoy solving problems and implementing solutions that benefit my clients. Working at Conficio allows me to inspire a dedicated team of engineer.

I have worked on projects ranging from medical devices, the Gravity Industries Jetsuit to Brompton's Electric Bike. Each project I have worked on has unique challenges that require bespoke solutions.

Durham University

Diploma, Physics & Astronomy

Durham is one of the leading physics and astronomy departments in the UK. When you choose the BSc in Physics, you’ll be joining a dynamic and focused learning community that is home to multiple research institutes, world-class facilities, and experts with close links to industry. Current developments in both research and industry are used to bring theoretical learning to life, a factor which contributes to our consistently high ranking in university league tables.

The rigorous curriculum has been designed to develop skills in reasoning, problem-solving and data analysis as well as advancing your understanding of mathematics and IT. The BSc in Physics is the first step towards achieving Chartered Physicist status, however many graduates move straight into employment in a wide range of industries from energy and IT to engineering and scientific research.

Modules covered; Foundations of Physics, Discovery Skills in Physics, Mathematical Methods in Physics, Laboratory Skills and Electronics

Interests & Hobbies

I try to spend my time outdoors. To me it is important that we take time to appreciate the world that we live in and those who are here to enjoy it with. My weekends are often filled with adventures ranging from climbing and mountaineering to cycling and walking.

I enjoy documenting my trips, I generally take a drone with me and ensure that my camera is always at my side (although this can be hard in the British weather). The best photos from my adventures either end up on my "Adventure Wall" at home so my children can see them or on my computer desktop in the office.
