If you’ve voted in Victoria …

If you’ve paid a bill using Australia Post …

If you’ve received a telemarketing call …

chances are
you’ve used my code.
I earned a Bachelor of Science from Monash University in 1998 and then worked for eleven years as an analyst/programmer in Melbourne. I have designed and implemented critical systems for Australia Post, the Central Bank of Malaysia, Superpartners, Telstra, the Victorian Electoral Commission, and many others.

In 2010 I sought a change of career and enrolled in the Master of Publishing and Communications course at the University of Melbourne. While undertaking this, I found work with Scribe Publications as their digital editor. In this role I produce ebooks, perform other editorial and production tasks, and think about the future of the book.
I was born on Sunday 13 March 1977 in Adelaide. I grew up in Bordertown and Mildura, then moved out on my own to Melbourne in 1995. I like science fiction, loud music, craft beer, and travel. I am married to the beautiful Penny and we have two beautiful children, Daniel and Abigail.



I have written an essay called No Future? The Lack of Science Fiction Published in Australia that appeared in Publishing Research Quarterly, March 2011 [self-archived here].
I am participating in the Australian Women Writers 2012 National Year of Reading Challenge.
I am on Twitter, as @digidg.
I kept a weblog for ten years called Pah, which has now been archived by the National Library of Australia. It was among the first Australian weblogs and I wrote about art, pop culture, philosophy, and a wide range of cultural phenomena.
