About Me
It's hard to describe yourself without starting with your profession. I am a Chemical Engineer, and I'm lucky enough to really enjoy my job. I have been fortunate in that my work has taken me to plants all over Europe and the Caribbean, and I have worked on plants from as diverse fields as minerals processing, through polymer production, to synthesis gas and its products. The different commercial and working philosophies that I have seen have given me a good understanding of where problems can arise and ways to work around them. I have a page of resources that I either find useful or have created myself.
But 9 to 5 work isn't all life is about. My real passions are for travel and photography, getting to see the world from different perspectives. Whether it's visiting mediaeval villages in Slovenia, or hiking in Venezuela I love to experience new places, and record them to remember. You can see more about the experiences I've set as goals for myself.
