About Me
Richard became at Oracle user back in 1984 with Oracle V4.1, then joined Oracle as a Consultant working on defence and health projects. Moving to California just in time for the 1989 Loma Prieta earthquake, he was the Product Manager for database security and then Director of the Secure Systems team, and moved to Singapore to do public sector marketing. After leaving Oracle in 1997 and attending London Business School as a Sloan Fellow, he then spent ~20 years on various startup activities in Asia - helping to start 2 low-cost airlines and co-founding regional retail distribution businesses for Crocs and Totes. In 2018, back in the UK, Richard picked up Oracle again, and specifically Oracle APEX. Needing some workflow components for a project and finding that there was nothing available off-the-shelf, Richard started contributing to the Flows for APEX project when it was first announced in April 2020. Since then, he has been the main architect and developer of the Flows for APEX engine. In 2022-23, he worked on Flows for APEX and APEX Workflow as a member of the APEX Development Team at Oracle.In 2024, he has developed and launched the Flows for APEX Enterprise Edition as a paid option for Flows customers needing support, and as a way to make Flows for APEX a sustainable and well supported BPMN-based workflow solution for APEX. Richard currently slits his time between London and Singapore.
