Because woodworking is one of my biggest passions, I've jumped at the opportunity to acquire a furniture and cabinet making business in Auckland. Even though my physical involvement in the company will be limited to after hours and weekends, the factory will be manned by a tradesman during the day, so production will continue. Exciting times!

I have over 15 years experience in ICT- ranging from engineering and programming to technical sales. Sales has been part of my career for more than 10 years, and my passion for people have made those 10 years a treat. I use my people skills to learn as much as possible about the people I work with, from interests to passions. This has allowed me to learn much about technology through osmosis.The bulk of my career was spent in South Africa, but in 2008, I decided to emigrate to New Zealand and haven't looked back since. In the time since my arrival in New Zealand, I have built an extensive network of contacts in the ICT sector, which proves invaluable in keeping the pulse of the ICT job market.
