Deon Du Plessis Email and Phone Number
As a System Administrator I am responsible for the operations of an 80+- employee organization. With more than 15 years of IT experience, my goal has been to modernize and scale the technology landscape and drive forward initiatives to expand the capabilities, systems, and performance across the organization. To date, the results have been impressive, including transition to a new backup strategy, a record minimum amount of downtime, improvements in overall system speed, building databases to track quotes and stock, building in-house intranet and costing systems, running and updating the company website, designing all company artwork, and quick and effective problem solving across multiple platforms. Further, I run my own freelance photography business where I focus on weddings. I’ve built all of the systems from pricing structures, ordering process, the website and finally delivering high quality end products to clients. When I’m not shooting weddings I do pro bono work for various charities such as Maria Kloppers and The Living Link. My images have been used in magazines (Getaway Magazine/The SA Artist Magazine) and websites. I’ve also won the Mazda Wildlife competition, and I was part of the official photography team for the World Body Fitness and Fashion show. View my website at www.deonduplessis.co.za.As with the above I have also started a web design company called The Red which develops and runs websites. I have been web admin for my current company’s website since 2012, and I am doing more and more freelance jobs. Most recently a cycling website and a charity website for animals (Heidelberg SPCA). I’m keeping my skills sharp with online courses and freelance jobs. View the website at www.thered.co.za.
