About Me

I grew up in the Northern Beaches of Sydney, moved to the city, fell in with a community and artists and musicians, got a job as a programmer, travelled around Australia, moved around Australia, settled in the Blue Mountains, then got itchy feet.

I am a lover and appreciator of dogs, and have a Catahoula leopard dog named Pawpaw.
