I truly enjoy helping companies solve their IT challenges. From project management, solution design, implementation to ongoing support, I work with all areas of the business, guiding them through the many hurdles todays IT environments can present. I pride myself on solving IT challenges and to this end, I have always succeeded.I love working with people and am proud to write that all the companies I work with count me as one of their own - it makes Christmas meal season very busy!One of the big challenges within IT is to communicate technical information to a broad range of people and this is something I excel at.I have always believed you cannot live off past success so every day is approached with the same commitment, endeavour and enthusiasm as my first day within the IT industry over 20 years ago.I have a keen interest in flying and this has honed my ability to review and augment situations with a three-dimensional perspective just as I do when I'm up in the air.My professional skills cover many IT disciplines including:Project ManagementIT SecurityIT ManagementCloudVirtualisationDisaster RecoveryMy skill set is vast, but these are my technical areas of expertise:Windows Server 2019Windows Server 2016Windows Server 2012Hyper-VVMware vSphere and vCenterAWSActive Directory Domain MigrationsSANs including iSCSI and FibreNetworking including VLANs, Trunking and QOSOffice 365 including migrations to the cloudExchange ServerActive Directory including solution design, security and group policyDNS including internal and external infrastructureWindows 10Clearswift Secure Email GatewayDatto RMMESET AntivirusSonicWALL firewall appliancesSophos AntivirusVeritas Backup ExecLinuxmacOS
