Hi I am Sam. I am a systems architect and software developer, mostly working in Objective-C/Cocoa, C, Ruby and occasionally PHP. Most of my time is spent living and working in Chicago, Illinois. But don’t let that fool you! I originate from London, but currently enjoying a stint at being a legal alien in America’s Mid-West.

My real passion is developing system architectures for large scale applications. I am also very interested in mobile development for iOS (both iPhone and iPad). I spend a lot of time messing around with various personal projects that rarely see the light of day. I am a strong advocate of the Open Source movement and I am a core contributor to the Kohana Framework project.

I am currently the Chief Technical Architect for Sitterati, a new product from Sittercity. Previously I have worked with many international clients of all sizes from the BBC to Comic Relief, The Open University to the Joint Information Strategic Committee.

On the rare occasions when I am not sitting in front of a computer, I usually occupy my time with making bread, reading, cycling and in the winter months snowboarding.

Warning: I can talk endlessly about snowboarding given half a chance!
