Introduction

(Last updated: 02/02/2026)

I am Dr Christopher Sully and I am/ was a Cardiff based software developer of over 30 years industry experience. During this time I've worked mainly on web application projects utilising Microsoft products and technologies: principally ASP.NET (in various forms) and SQL Server (which has changed less) and working on all phases of the project lifecycle, from requirements analysis through to testing and support as well as team and project management with a modicum of Scrum mastery along the way. The Ph.D. was in AI when it was less trendy.

If you might like to utilise some of the aforementioned experience you might like to take a look at my work details and then contact me. Though please do bear in mind that I’m only interested in remote, part-time work at this stage of my career. In fact, I'm basically retired by this point so it'd also need to be pretty interesting / low stress to pique my interest!

I've retired a little early because I belatedy realised I could after discovering the FIRE movement (Financial Independence, Retire Early) in 2025. With time on my hands and needing to learn more about FIRE investing to optmise our own family's financial situation I've also started sharing that knowledge with others, mainly on Facebook groups but I'm also starting a little section of FIRE related info on this site.

The photos above, by the way, are a few of the not so recent snaps of mine.

This Site

So this site dates back to 2014 when the latest & greatest included HTML5, CSS3, Skeleton and ASP.NET 4.5 web forms, so these are what this site are built with until I next use it as a playground. Web forms simply because my last file-new project template was MVC4 and I like to vary the ASP.NET technologies.

*29/04/15* I had a quick play with a 'parallax' version of this page if you would like to take a look.

Nothing changes on the internet in 10 years, right?;)
