+<h4>About Me</h4>
+
+<p>Does the massive gap between what is known and what is mainstream bother anyone else? It bothers
+me. The field of computing is littered with ideas that are well researched, have working prototypes,
+and would be very useful, yet ended up abandoned decades ago for no apparent reason. I expect other
+fields are probably similar. One of my goals in life is to reduce this gap between what's known and
+what's actually used. Mainly in software development, because that's what I'm most familiar with.
+</p>
+
+<p>So this website is primarily about hosting and talking about programming projects. But also
+expect electronics, civics, foreign languages, food, videogames... basically anything catching my
+interest about which I can say something data driven or otherwise interesting.</p>
+
+<p>Details of where I grew up and whatnot are unimportant, but it is worth noting that in the first
+half of 2021 I moved my place of residence from NSW, Australia to the South Island of New Zealand
+due to extreme corruption and abuses of power going on in the Australian Federal Government. This
+caused this website to go offline for a few months since it was being hosted on a home server at the
+time, but it has since been moved to a VPS so that's all fixed now.</p>
+
+<h4>Qualifications</h4>
+
+<ul>
+    <li>Bachelor of Computer Science, University of New England, 2011</li>
+    <li>Accounts Administration AQF Certificate III, 2016</li>
+    <li>Accounting AQF Certificate IV, 2017</li>
+    <li>Library and Information Services AQF Certificate IV, 2018</li>
+</ul>
+
+<p>In 2012 I almost completed an extra honours year in computer science, before finding out that I'm
+really not cut out for research. My mindset is too focused on solving practical problems and my
+talent for prose is comparatively not so great.
