My name is Damien Guard and I am a software developer living on the island of Guernsey that can be found in the English Channel between France and England.
I have been developing software since 1983 when I learnt on both an Acorn BBC Micro by day and a Sinclair ZX Spectrum by night. I have since turned this into a career developing software including commercial & internet banking solutions in use by well known-banks within the UK as well as games, e-commerce applications, device drivers, intranets, extranets, content management systems and a variety of other custom solutions.
My work these days is mostly focused on Windows and C# .NET but I have previously developed on IBM System 36, AS/400, DOS and embedded systems including C, C++, Pascal/Delphi, COBOL and RPG.
I hold a BSc degree in Computer Science where I obtained a first with honours and am actively involved in the local Guernsey Software Developer Forum where I have given a number of talks on subjects such as Subversion, Web Application Security and Microsoft's Language Integrated Query (LINQ). I have been a member of the British Computer Society since 2005.
