About me
My name is Damien Guard and I have been developing software since 1983 when I learnt on the Acorn BBC Micro by day and Sinclair ZX Spectrum by night. I moved on to developing commercial & internet banking, games, e-commerce, device drivers, intranets, extranets, content management and other custom projects.
Currently I work for Microsoft as a Software Development Engineer at Xbox Live! and previously spent almost two years within Microsoft’s Data Modelling Group (DMG) on LINQ to SQL and Entity Framework parts of the .NET Framework.
I was actively involved in the Guernsey Software Developer Forum where I gave a number of talks on subjects such as Subversion, Web Application Security and Microsoft’s Language Integrated Query (LINQ) before I moved from Guernsey to Vancouver in 2008.
I hold a BSc degree in Computer Science (1st with Honours) and was a member of the British Computer Society from 2005-2008.
