Zane is a new entrant at the Haututu Hacklab and Tāiki e! He's a self-taught Web and Software developer, tinkerer, and general nerd (and geek) for many years now, working professionally in IT for 15+ years. He loves art and projects that combine creative and technical skills, and loves to meet like-minded tinkerers who can talk through all the gory details.

In his spare time, Zane lives for music (often of the darker or heavier variety), gaming, Virtual Reality (especially the real sickness inducing stuff with a lot of freedom-of-movement), simulator racing and flying. He is also passionate about game development, and always has a few side-projects on the go in a variety of weird and wonderful programming languages.

While usually a shy character, get him talking shop and he'll never shut up!
