Aaron Wallis’s Summary

For the last seven years I have been developing complex online applications for a wide range of audiences and markets.

Having started tinkering with technology at a very young age, my love for all things technical has led me to develop intranets at an international scale, funky desktop and mobile applications, controversial flash games, large platforms powering some of Australia's most popular youth destinations and managing hordes of geeks responsible for developing web apps and sites for a range of Australia's Blue Chip companies.

Being obsessed with robots, Lego and kids cartoons; I'm proud to be the nerdiest kid at Mark.

Whilst during the day I manage the digital studio at Mark, I transform into a indie developer on the mac platform at night, developing innovative applications such as DeskLickr, Root & Bleep Blop.
