Summary:
Multi-media designer / developer with a passion for games - playing and making. I\\\'m also an amateur composer and musician and am mad about Apple Macs.

I acquired a taste for game mods back in the eighties writing sprite machine code on my trusty Commodore 64. I started exploring the Torque Game Engine recently and will start on my first Torque 3D game experiment soon. It\\\'ll be a casual project but I would like to have some new stuff in my portfolio within the next 6 months.

I\\\'ve left my day job designing and developing web GUIs for marketers and corporates (I\\\'ve been doing that for 10 years now at various companies), so I\\\'m taking 6 months off to test a few ideas on what I want to do next. I\\\'ve always wanted to try my hand at game graphics and plan to use Torque to test the viability of a career transition. I\\\'m thinking best fit would be a modeller / texture / animator generalist.

I got into games after playing with a friend\\\'s BBC computer in the early 80\\\'s (I think it was the BBC computer\\\'s ascii art \\\"owl logo\\\" and the movie \\\"Tron\\\" that first got me hooked on computer graphics).

I have NZ / UK dual citizenship and like to travel. I\\\'m currently living in Melbourne, Australia.
