About Me

I'm Gervase Markham, known mostly as Gerv. I look approximately like the photo to the right, although it doesn't show the (now rather faded) 5-inch y-shaped scar from my adam's apple to my right ear, caused by multiple operations for adenoid cystic carcinoma, a rare salivary gland cancer. Recently, for the same reason, I've also got rather thinner. You can read more about all that here.

My primary identity is that I'm a follower of Jesus Christ (my church), but I'm also a husband, father of three boys, a geek, and (I hope) a gentleman.

I'm from a little village in Cumbria, UK, a bit south of Penrith, but I now live in Loughborough, from where I work for Mozilla.
