Thomas A. Squire was born and bred in Wellington, New Zealand, where he met his wife-to-be, a Singaporean working in Wellington at the time. Following her when she returned to Singapore, this city has been his home base since 1998. A pilot and mathematician by training, a tech worker by trade, Thomas's career is interrupted from time to time by his wife's work postings, which have taken them and their children from Singapore to Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City and San Francisco, and back to Singapore. During these postings, he typically takes on the stay-at-home dad role and write books.
