Craig is the Head of Engineering at News UK
Craig hasn’t had the most conventional path into technology. He fell into development after university. He was originally a business analyst writing models in VBA. It turned out Craig actually really enjoyed coding so he moved on to VB then C#. Then he became a C# developer.
At this time the internet was becoming really interesting and especially the client-side was becoming a creative space. This shift saw Craig become a full Javascript developer. Once he learned Javascript he started learning all the languages he could until he ended up at News UK.
