About Me

Given that you’re here, and apparently reading this tripe, I assume you
want to know something about me. Well, I’m in my early 30s and I currently live near Southampton on the south coast of England.
I’ve been married to Amanda since March 1998 and we have a son, Callum, who was born in January 2007.

I used to be a UNIX Systems Administrator for an insurance company. Before that I was Network Manager at SUSE Linux UK. I am probably best known for my work on
the openSUSE GNOME repositories and for running Planet SUSE, where you can read the
latest blogs from the openSUSE community.

I’ve been a curate at an Anglican church here since July 2007 and before that I was training at
St John’s College, Nottingham. Before starting my training, we lived in Watford, which is in Hertfordshire, just north-west of London. I hold a BA (Hons) from the University of Nottingham in Ministry and am currently working toward an MA in Theology of Mission and Ministry.
