Frustratingly a job I was really excited about has fallen through at the last minute due to a lawyer screwing up.
So, I'm still looking for a new role. I'd really love to find something in the music industry, but open to anything!

So I've been notified that my role is at risk. Would anybody like to hire a me.
I've spent the last 7 years as chief architect, which realistically meant doing every job from infrastructure to product and occasionally acting CTO.
I am interested in everything, and curious to try new things.

Turn on the little feature that reminds you to post alt text with your images. Alt text allows blind and partially sighted people to understand what's in your images using screen readers. Without alt text, it just says "image".
