Hi, I'm Louie Christie. I've had a varied career including:
-
developing software
to fight financial crime
-
hosting tech events
but I can't do a forced fun face
-
user-friendly tech consultant
on a beautiful
mental health app
to slow down paranoid thinking
[1]
, which is literally the opposite to what most apps do
-
developing apps & websites
almost as fast as tech startups can go bust
-
podcast host
mostly as an excuse to have a laugh with my
mates
-
panellist
on a YouTube quiz show about video games
-
coaching coding
to French students while half expecting the guillotine
-
IT support
mostly telling people to 'switch it off-and-on again'
-
programming
mainframe
computers older and more decrepid than myself
- waiting tables,
snowboarding, and dodging bears in Canada
-
leading youth camps
on Kangaroo Island
- pig farming in the desert
I have a masters degree in human-centred computer systems.
No, I'm not sure what that means either.
Think it's something to do with making computers user-friendly.
And goodness knows, we could all do with a bit of that.
When I'm not coding...
I can be found in London performing questionable quality
stand-up comedy.
In small dark basements in rooms above pubs. (And
virtual reality.)
