Andrew Thompson

Senior Developer

Andrew is somewhat of a legend around Get Started. His name can be seen in a large proportion of our code files and he has the ability to solve just about any complex problem thrown at him. His close affinity with websites first took shape when he began building dynamic websites in year 9 computing (while others were still struggling with word processing).

 
Tommo, as he is known to everyone here, joined Get Started in 2002. He took a sabbatical from university in 2003 to work full-time at Get Started and enjoyed immense success, leading the development team on some of our biggest projects. In 2004, he deposited himself on the other side of the world and lived in Berlin for 9 months, picking up the German language in no-time and doing the occasional website for Get Started.

He often likes to make it known around the Get Started team, that he is responsible for the hiring of the now General Manager back in 2002...
