Working for a variety of organisations, in the public and private sector, as technical director, IT Manager, business and software analyst and consultant and as a project manager.I am particularly drawn to use my skills in support of the areas I am committed to - especially the strengthening of local communities, the care and protection of the environment, and helping the developing world. At the moment this means mainly voluntary work and I therefore have to earn a living as a mainstream business / software analyst / programmer.My preferred M.O. is KISS. I like to interact directly with my clients and the users within client organsiations, develop rapid prototype solutions which they can see and use, and then modify the solution accordingly.Specialties: Project management, business and systems analysis, database design and programming (Access, SQLServer, PHP, MySQL) MSOffice solutions (macros and vbscripts for Word, Excel), web applications (online databases, e-commerce solutions, site design and creation)
