Mark is a former-sysadmin-turned-developer with a lifelong interest in tech, science and maths. He started his Ruby journey in 2008 with Rails. These days, he uses Ruby and a handful of other languages - but Ruby is his staple language, because of both the language itself and the community around it. He is also keen to help the tech industry be a better and more inclusive place, particularly for people with disabilities.

Outside of tech, he watches more TV than is probably healthy, manages to be a halfway-decent home cook, and is keen to do more travelling.

Also Perth Ruby Meetup co-organiser.

Claire is relatively new to Ruby development having recently completed a full stack web development bootcamp. She's been working in Tech for the last 5 years in the Support and Customer Experience space and decided to make the move to development because building things is fun 😎
