I have been using various programming languages for over 40 years and can learn new languages and concepts quickly. I originally worked for British Airways developing credit card swipe systems, marketing databases and sales tools, before moving to the city of London to work on financial software for investments banks. I write well in a variety of styles, having originally trained as a technical writer over 30 years ago. Since then, I have written screenplays, research papers, website content, research proposals, business plans, and numerous articles. I learned to edit videos on Avid Media Composer before transitioning to Adobe Premier Pro and have trained corporate marketing departments in video production and editing techniques. Over the past 10 years I have been a part-time academic working in the fields of social psychology and neuroscience. As a result I have a good working knowledge of statistical packages such as SPSS and 'R'.
