Julian Seidenberg
Developer
Julian joined SilverStripe in early 2009. He is an American citizen who has never lived in America. Julian was born and grew up in Germany, studied in the UK, and is now happily living in New Zealand. He values New Zealand’s friendly, laid-back culture and the natural beauty of the country.
With a life-long interest in computers and technology, Julian has a background in developing web applications using PHP and Java and has worked in a variety of software engineering roles. He knows good design when he sees it, but is barely able to draw a decent stick figure.
Julian holds a PhD in Semantic Web technology from the University of Manchester and has a number of publications in the field. As a developer at SilverStripe, Julian hopes to add more and more semantic web goodness to the SilverStripe platform.
Outside of work Julian enjoys studying and teaching the 5000-year old Hare Krishna philosophy (look for him at Gaura Yoga or ask him about self-realisation and whatnot), yoga, playing the cello, and photography. He is a founding member of the Institute for a Sustainable Society and he blogs occasionally.
