My brief bio:

I was born in Auckland, New Zealand, where a grew up and went to school. I've never had a clear idea of what I wanted to do with my life, I've just tried to go where opportunity takes me.

I entered university to become and engineer and left it a biologist with a PhD in maths. I worked in Rome, Italy, for a couple of years, and then for another couple of years in Boulder, Colorado. I spent most of that time doing research in biomathematics.

Now I live in Boston, Massachusetts, with my wife, three dogs, and three cats. I left academia and started working as an intern at Irrational Games, Boston. Currently I'm working on a game called BioShock, which is going to be released in August, 2007.
