Henry Abbott - Developer, Father, Musician, Photographer and Internet kid since the early AOL days.
I was originally born in Queensland Australia in 1985 and moved to Sydney for a time in the late ’80s as a young kid. In 1989 my family moved to the USA and landed in the Tampa Bay area. We drove across the US in our Volvo station wagon from Clearwater Florida to Marin County California, Fairfield Iowa and then to Portland Oregon for several years. It is when I was going to elementary school while living in Beaverton Oregon that I first started to get into coding working with HyperCard on the Mac Classic. It is here around 1993 that I first made contact with the the internet via 28.8K dial-up modem.
I moved back to Australia in 1995 and spent the rest of my school years growing up in Byron Bay. It is here I developed a fascination with music theory and the mathematics behind sound while starting a long (and frankly slow) journey which I continue to this day, learning Piano in the jazz tradition.
Since 2004 I have lived in the Tampa Bay Area in Florida and now work as team lead and developer for a company which creates accounting and cash management applications.
