Presenter Bio:

I'm Hamish, the lead of the Mobile Centre of Excellence at Theta where we try to make things easy for ourselves. I'm a type 1 diabetic who in a past life has represented New Zealand, and both competed and coached at a national level. I love sports that are all about flow, making stuff in the shed, and tinkering a bit with microcontrollers. But most of all I enjoy doing what I can to give my son great learning experiences.

No prior experience is required, all levels of knowledge are welcome!
