I'm David John Owen, New Zealand citizen and average bloke,
commonly known as Dave. I'm lucky enough to live in
In the big scheme of things I suppose my existence is fairly inconsequential, but I like to tell myself (and other people) that I have something to offer the World.
My working life has covered a few different career paths. I've been a psychiatric nurse, a musician, television director and web designer. Some of my jobs have worked out better than others but I'm pretty sure I was at least competent in all those areas. I basically retired in 2007 and I now live off my websites.
I'm happy that I've never outgrown my passion for space adventures. My space-related projects include giving live presentations, running sidewalk astronomy, collecting space memorabilia and building a spaceflight simulator. I'm currently president of the Hamilton Astronomical Society.
