BIO
I studied Psychology at university but then switched to programming afterwards when I saw that you could get paid for making things on the computer. This makes me a technical person who is also intersted in people and their many odd ways. Founded and ran a moderately successul software engineering and web design consultancy for about 8 years. My co-founders and I founded Axiom after transitioning from that business. I have a big passion for game design theory and making games, too.
