I developed a passion for all things technical from a very young age, I was fortunate enough to start playing with computers socially when I was about seven years old. To my grandmothers dismay I had a computer in pieces on the floor at the age of eleven (these days you might find me use an anti-static wristband). Throughout my teenage years I continued to work with computers and soon realised it would form the basis of my career later on in life. I studied at Coventry’s faculty of engineering and computing – Coventry University, I achieved a 2:1 in BSc (Hons) Computer Science. Since leaving University I have worked my way through the ranks from first line helpdesk technician through to tier three operations analyst.My current technical skills range from Cisco IOS, Cisco ASA, Microsoft Windows Server, Microsoft Exchange, VMware Sphere and on a less technical note I like to develop efficiencies for the rest of the team by utilising the latest tech.It may sound sad, but I love work… Even when I’m scratching my head at 3am trying to recover an Exchange server with no backups. I have a real passion for technology and take pride in the work I do for my customers.When I’m not geeking it up on some project, you may find me cycling in the summer, snowboarding in the winter and stuffing my face with good food and beer throughout the year.
