As a teenager Paul was and still is an avid gamer with a love of everything movies. When he went to university he learnt most of his programming skills by taking Computer Science with a view to one day writing his own games. Through his working career he has coded many different styles of systems from user interfaces for bank tellers to CMS systems for websites.
Using his skills that he picked up during doing these jobs he used them to create his own websites, leading to the creation of P****d off Geek which he now runs as an entertainment site. He also offers his reviewing skills to other sites for all kinds of entertainment reviews, one type of these being tech reviews that he does on TecVilla. He can often be found ranting about all things geeky on Twitter when he's not working on his other new obsession ghost-writing.
