I've been working professionally on the internet since the mid-90s, back when I helped build one of New Zealand's first dial-up ISPs. I spent the late 90s and early 2000s in US dot-com startups, then moved back to Wellington in 2003 to work with Weta Digital's infrastructure team — and later managed it. Along the way I picked up some IMDB credits on The Lord of the Rings and Avatar.
My experience spans ISP, VFX, and semiconductor industries. I've been teaching management and team leadership skills since 2013. I'm a Linux and macOS specialist with broad general knowledge across most internet and computer things — the kind of person who's genuinely curious about how all of it fits together.
These days I freelance from twelve acres on the Kāpiti Coast, shared with my wife Tink, my parents, and assorted wild and domestic fuzzles. When I'm not solving tech problems, you'll find me tinkering with permaculture, making espresso, meditating, or contributing to open source software.
When you call Haume, you get me. That's the good news and the bad news.
I really want to support people doing meaningful work. If that's you, let's talk.
