Active and engaging speaker on creativity in design or IT
Biography
Creativity has always been the main thread in my life. Throughout my life and career I have been using my creativity. This ranges from finding the best solution for an IT problem to a way to fix the bump steer on my race car.
Because of this I have been facinated by the concept of creativity. How does it work (for me) and how can I use that knowledge to maximise my creativity.
It has led me to changing the way I approach problems and how I go about solving them.
I am an active and easy speaker, I enjoy speaking in public and manage to find ways to engage the audience and draw them into the subject I am presenting on.

Accomplishments (2)
Managed and designed a website for elections (professional)
Managed the team and designed the process for a website that would allow voting via the Internet. This created many a contradiction in the sense that it had to be open access, but totally secure. The votes had to be auditable and tracable, but totally anonymous. This was a very hard project to do and I learned a lot of things I did not want to know.
Designed and built my own car (personal)
I have designed and built my own car. Started with a clean sheet of paper and in 7 years time designed and built One, a street legal, approved car with a great character and roadholding.
