Damian Walker's Personal Web Site
Welcome to my personal web site. I have other sites devoted to hobbies I'm deeply interested in: see them on the links page. This one will be home to odds and ends, like one-off projects, and those hobbies for which I haven't designed a dedicated site. But I'll start off with a selection of simple biographical facts.
About Damian in 12 Easy Questions
- What do you do?
