Keyman team - about Marc Durdin
Project Manager, Developer - Keyboard authoring
I wrote the first versions of Keyman, as a teenager while living in Laos, in between home schooling and riding my bicycle around town fixing NGO computers. After moving to Tasmania for University, where I completed a Bachelor of Computing degree, I worked with my wife for a year in Papua New Guinea as a volunteer with Australian Volunteers International. I continued part-time development of Keyman during and after University and started working full time on the full suite of Keyman projects in 2005.
Outside work I still ride my bike. We have two adult daughters and one son; currently, we are living in southern Germany where I am work as the Project Manager for Keyman within SIL. I can speak, read, and write (and type!), to varying degrees, Khmer, Lao, Thai, and Tok Pisin, used to speak French as a child, and am now learning German.
