About Peter

I'm an Australian, based in the Washington, DC, area of the United States. I spend a lot of time there with Jasmine, Australia's best-known speedsolver of the Rubik's Cube. Prior to the US, Jasmine and I were based in London, UK. We have also lived previously in the United States and Australia.

I have worked for an Australian business rules and compliance company since 1999 in Australia, the US and the UK. I have also lectured in IT and Law related topics at King's College, London, and at The Australian National University.

I have some more information and a list of publications available (pop-up window).

Are you younger than you think?

I was channel surfing at home last night, when I came across a show on BBC1 called Are You Younger Than You Think? The show itself was pretty tedious and silly -- at least the few minutes I endured were -- but there is a tie-in online test that lets you compare your actual (calendar) age with your "real age" based on various lifestyle and health factors.

It turns out that I am ageing pretty well (my body is 1.6 years older than my "real age" based on lifestyle and health factors). The site's recommendations for doing even better included flossing more regularly and drinking more alcohol!
