Full Biography

I always give 100% especially when it comes to crunch time.  I know the value of hard work!  For example one of my old projects saw me working several nights in London, Soho region (Red Light District) up till midnight or later...alone... in a four storey building-site pulling telephone and data cables.

It was taxing yet simultaneously rewarding.  Even now I am not beyond doing that kind of physical work as I tend to lead by example and being something of a perfectionist I sometimes prefer to do things myself.

My furthest IT implementations include video conferencing in the USA, network install & data cabling in Greece (leased line configuration via CISCO router and firewall routing rules, including data termination, OS install and Active Directory (Out There Media), and end user & PC support in St. Lucia.

Specialties: SME solutions, Wintel Solutions, bespoke solutions, alternative solutions to Microsoft products, cost management and purchasing, Linux and MAC, Android and IOS capable.
