Carl has a natural passion for all things technology, a specialism in data and distributed systems and a small(ish) but unique shoe collection. An animal lover, Carl has a unique menagerie including two chaotic Bengal cats and a Bull Snake and selects holidays based on which wildlife he will get to see.
