About

I’m a Vancouver based E-Business analyst for a large corporation, a technologist, a consultant, conference speaker/attendee, a trainer, a photographer and a gamer among other things.
I love my wife, technology, gadgets, mexican food, photography, Vancouver Canucks hockey, beer (particularly Hefeweizen), videogames and cacti.
Fun geeky fact: retrocactus.com was a site I ran a number of years ago (and currently points to this site) that documented the design and construction of a full size video arcade cabinet (later expanded to cover additional cabinets and other games added to my collection). This cabinet housed a computer that ran M.A.M.E. and was connected to real arcade controls on the cabinet which enabled it to emulate and play over 5000 different classic arcade games. I built this cabinet on the balcony of my 9th story apartment in the West End of Vancouver. If you lived below me, I’m sorry about the sawdust!
I also have a pretty damn cool voicemail greeting too.
Full disclosure: Unless otherwise stated, everything on my site is my own. I almost always just use my photos in all my posts, review products that I have purchased myself, and post videos that I’ve produced myself. I do occasionally benefit from review copies of various items/gadgets/tours etc and always declare how I came into possession of them so there is no question and I have the freedom to say if it sucks or not. If something posted here isn’t of my own creation or purchase, I’ll give credit to the originator (to the best of my abilities – sometimes it’s hard to source the origin but I’ll mention that in the credits). I also have minimal advertising on this site on purpose, mostly as an experiment, certainly not enough to allow me to quit my day job.
