Hi.
Faith, music and technology have been uppermost virtually all my life. Amongst my greatest pleasures are preaching, leading worship, or building something new with technology.
The longer I live, the more evidence I see and the more persuaded I am that the only true, enduring source of lasting contentment can be found in God. I’ve been reading the Bible since I was seven and still, many decades later, I find it an inexhaustible source of truth and joy. It is my delight to be married to a wonderful woman who shares this view.
Professionally, I am qualified in law, computer science, enterprise architecture and security. I practised law for ten years, dealing with private client law and charity law. I managed the I.T. for my firm for the duration of my career, before moving into a formal I.T. position in 2006.
As my career progressed, my focus increasingly shifted to information security and compliance. In May 2017, I qualified as a CISSP, and in September 2019, I became a Certified ISO/IEC 27001 Lead Implementer. For more, see my LinkedIn profile.
My first novel, Insensate, was published in 2006. I retain fond hopes of writing sequels. For the time being however, as a parent of a disabled adult child, my life is already quite full! Occasional blogging offers me a creative outlet, and you will also find here links to my work on Bible meditation.
Outside these interests, I enjoy photography, shooting mainly with a Canon EOS 90D
