About me

Trevor - NZ - April 2014
Visiting a friend in New Zealand, also a photographer, so thought time to do an update profile picture

In brief, I live in the north eastern suburb of Adelaide, South Australia called Banksia Park. I am semi-retired as I get to bored being completely retired.

I am often in the Philippines over the last year to spend time with my beautiful Jackie.

My background is Electronics Engineering in the early days and then moved into programming and IT working for companies like EDS (Electronic Data Systems) and HP (Hewlett Packard). I finished working for HP in June of 2014 after taking an early retirement package. Today I still do small projects for different local companies which keeps me active.

I do have a few hobbies which include photography, graphics, electronics, programming, and web development. Projects that combine all these together are probably my favorite for obvious reasons.

Ready for a shift with St John Ambulance

I was a volunteer with St John Ambulance service. If you are at any events around Adelaide, especially Adelaide Oval, Clipsal v8’s, Adelaide Entertainment Centre and many more, you may have seen me in my green ambulance uniform treating patients.

I used to have an online store called Electron Hobbies which sold various electronics components for electronics hobbyists. I wound that up as not a viable option. The direct from manufacturer and/or wholesaler makes having a small shop un-profatable.

I am now senior designer with IoT Systems Design in Adelaide where we design and build various internet connected devices for industry.

I do enjoy travel too and have managed to do quite a bit. You can see some of the pictures here or on my flickr page at https://www.flickr.com/trevlinden/. You may also see some of my work on Google Earth.

Anyway, hope you have a great day and enjoy reading through my blog.
