I grew up in Harrogate and did a Media Production degree at Lincoln University. I have lived in a few different cities since finishing in 2007, including a summer in Brighton on my own, but the Yorkshire in me has brought me back up north to York and I love this city.
A self diagnosed geek, I play video games, think spelling/grammar is sexy, prefer Marvel to DC and spend far too much time on the internet. I also enjoy watching standup comedy and going to catch a show, as well as having a few drinks with my buddies and trying to cook.
One&Other is a beautiful website and a great idea, and I’m excited to help it reach its full potential.
I occasionally tweet my thoughts @luweasel.
