My full name is Kornelis Sietsma - I tend to use "Kornelis" for formal correspondance, and "Korny" the rest of the time.
I hail from Melbourne, Australia, but now I live and work in the UK.
I work as a principal engineer, troublemaker, and general wise-guy for ThoughtWorks, a global software company.
My code usually lives on github.
I have one main technical side project - the Polyglot Code Tools which are a suite of tools for visualising and understanding software built in a wide range of programming languages (hence "polyglot"). All the details are at https://polyglot.korny.info
This goes in bursts as I also have a significant other side project - my family!
This page is pretty ancient - apologies for retro things like old IE checks and possibly dubious fonts. One day I'll clean it up - please don't judge me on anything here but the content!
