Where to start? My names Justin and I’m 23 from The New Forest in Hampshire, UK. I am a Programmer, Web-Developer, Computer Technician, Gamer and Lead Guitarist.
Computing is my main hobby and I am presently employed as a Web Master for a set of companies, including a Post Graduate Research Centre, Publishers and Software Developers. My computer skills go a lot further than web development though as mentioned above. I have a BTEC National Diploma and a BSC Honours Degree in Computing. I have been self taught computers since I was about 12 and all we had was a 286 PC with MS DOS 3.3 and no manuals, so I taught myself.
I also build and repair computers for friends, family, and occasionally go on callouts voluntarily for a friend’s computer support company.
My other hobbies also include playing guitar. I have played guitar for 16 years now and I also teach a few people occasionally, although my playing always out-strips that of my teaching abilities. I started playing guitar when I was 8 years old and I had 7 years training from age 9. I've taught myself since then, including a lot of music theory.

I am also a Terry Pratchett Fan, especially of the Discworld Series. I have all of the Discworld novels and a few of them are signed by the man himself. Eat your heart out Harry Potter.
I also do a bit of Photography and Video Editing (again on my computers), and a lot of this has been inspired by the graphics designer for the companies I work for, and my girlfriend Laura who lent me her DV camera a while back and I started filming the deer at Bolderwood in the New Forest. I edited the video and I was hooked. I then bought my own DV camera, (although not an overly expensive one) and a telephoto lens etc and did quite a bit of filming. I haven’t done much recently though.
As for photography, I have only recently just gotten into that and I only just purchased my own Digital Camera. My parents have one but I wanted one of my own. I have also recently purchased a Digital SLR Camera, a Nikon D50. I have been out shooting quite a bit since I purchased this great camera and you can find my pictures in my Photo Album.
Well that’s about it for this page. My existence summed up in a few paragraphs of text. You can find out more about me in the personal section of my website.
For potential employers visiting the website, I have included a professional section of the website which includes a cut down version of my CV, and my website portfolio.
I hope you enjoy your visit and find something useful.
