BioBorn in Copenhagen, Denmark in 1979, my family came to Australia in 1981 and finally settled in Adelaide, South Australia.
I went to a local Primary School, and a specialist language high school where I studied French and Latin up to and including year 12. I then studied some Agricultural Science out at Waite, then called Adelaide University (now University of Adelaide). I had almost completed that when I knew deep in my bones it was not for me so I dropped out and instead went through SAIBT which brought me to second year university doing Computing and Information Technology (MBIC) at University of South Australia.
In the middle of 2005 I switched to MBIA which is the double degree of Computer and Information Science and Bachelor of Arts (I'm majoring in multimedia). This is just like MBIC except one year longer and an extra degree. Known GPA at the middle of 2006 was 6.28. I completed these degrees at the end of 2006.
2009, I am the programmer at the family company, working on legacy software, currently in C++ and GCC, with the hope that the direction turns to C# and perhaps web-related stuff :)
