OBJECTIVE

I'm looking for a senior level position as a C# developer in London. I have a Tier 1 UK visa that is valid until September 2012. I intend renewing my visa.

I am a passionate believer in the effectiveness of an agile development environment where developer testing, iterative development and continuous integration form part of the development process.

I am most motivated when I can contribute my full potential by participating in the design process, mentoring other developers and contributing to initiatives that deliver software quicker.

Most of my experience is in the financial sector but I am eager to broaden my experience by working in other sectors.
