About me
My name is John Goodwin. I'm a very experienced, talented software developer who always seems to be looking for work.
For the past 10 years I have been working on websites and web applications, but my area of expertise is general programming.
Education
Degree in Computer Science, QMC London University.
Passed with 1st class honours, then started a PhD in functional programming languages. Worked myself crazy (literally), crashed out after 9 months and never completed.
This was taken just afterwards in 1990 when I got a job at a US defence firm without realising it. Too young, no common sense.
Work
Since then its been various jobs as a Software Developer, leaving the past behind and concentrating on software and family.
The geek thing has made working with people difficult. A very tolerant employer let me work at home for 10 years. Later on I started wearing sunglasses in the office, then things got a lot easier.
Now you can hardly see the crazy...
