I am a Christian. This means that I recognise that I am a great sinner, but Jesus Christ is an even greater saviour.
Given that my relationship with Christ is the foundation of my identity, everything else I might tell you about myself is relatively unimportant. However, here are a few other things you might be interested to know.
I was born to Rebecca and Paul Demchick, two microbiologists. I grew up with a great number of advantages due to their careful parentage. My father began teaching me rudimentary computer programming when I was around 6 years of age; this has since become the cornerstone of my career.
I live in Aotearoa New Zealand. I have studied the Māori language, the original language of New Zealand, and am moderately competent with it. At the moment, I live and work in Palmerston North.
I am a member of Crosspoint Church.
My vocation is in IT. I have experience as a system administrator, database administrator, and software engineer. My skillset is outlined here, should you be interested.
I sometimes post content to other websites. I had a Facebook and Twitter account, but have long since abandoned them due to concerns about the unpleasant effects of social media on individuals and society as a whole.
