Scott Woods Email and Phone Number
I am a published author, IT professional, experienced manager, stock investor, and game programmer with a diverse set of skills that can be leveraged to tackle complex challenges. As a game programmer, I originally developed games in Cocos2d and Objective C, which I published on the Apple App Store. While not commercially successful, it was pirated, so I suppose that is something. I have since moved on to Unity and using C#, but I am considering other possibilities. I am also interested in AI and how it can be used to improve games.As an author, I have written about four books, with a mixture of fiction and nonfiction. I have several others in various states of completion. This has helped me develop skills for running long-term projects and working with cover designers, editors, and beta readers.As an IT professional, I have worked in several large and small organizations, as well as running my own computer business where I helped small businesses and retail customers resolve their computer issues. From virus removal to data recovery, I have done it all. Having helped thousands of people over the course of a decade, I can safely say I have helped with pretty much everything.As a manager of a retail operation for over a decade, I have experience in all aspects of running a business, from hiring and training to payroll and the occasional firing of employees. I have always run a business professionally, and my goal as a manager was to enable my employees to do their best at work, and increase their ability to assist the business and themselves personally. I am pleased to say sales increased every year that I was involved in the business, thanks to my unique idea of saying “Yes” to the customer.As a stock investor, I monitor the markets and have developed several strategies which have outperformed the index over the 20 years I’ve been involved in the markets. I am familiar with markets, indexes, stocks, bonds, and financial reports, and I would love to discuss it with any interested parties.I have an extremely diverse skill set, which I am always expanding as I enjoy continued learning. Message me and let’s discuss what I can do for you.

Senior System Support TechnicianQueen'S University Jan 2023 - PresentKingston, Ontario, CanadaIn my current role of Senior Systems Support Technician at the Queen’s Library, I work with a variety of computers, servers and other technology such as specialized library equipment and high end scanners. I manage software licenses and am the “go to” person for security assessments in our department. I also train other staff on general and library specific technologies and work with external service providers. Our team maintains and monitors the different public computers of the Library. I am familiar with working on niche software products with limited documentation. For example, I recently installed the updated Cambridge Structural Database on one of the Library’s public computers.Since starting at the Library in January, 2023, I took the initiative and gained certification in Alma and Primo, two very specific library technologies that are used to manage the collection and the website access at the Library. -

ManagerRust Check Belleville Aug 2012 - Aug 2022Belleville, Ontario, CanadaMy experience in management is significant, as I was the manager of a Belleville automotive business for almost ten years. As manager, I was in charge of all different aspects of the business including hiring, training, supervising, quality control and safety, plus other responsibilities. I developed several unique packages that greatly increased our sales. I enjoy the challenge of sales and have had exceptional results by mail, in person and on the phone. As I have a computer background, I handled the digital advertising of the business. I created and managed the websites, Facebook pages, and online ads. Our Google listing reached the top of the Google search engine and stayed there for many years, offering essential information to customers. Online, direct mail and print advertising was very successful and our sales more than doubled. As business manager, I worked with various local organizations e.g. the City of Belleville Fire Department by focusing on excellent customer service. I am comfortable talking to people from all walks of life, and, as a local business person, I have come to know many people in the community. My college course which had a focus on business computing included an accounting class. I have used Microsoft applications and accounting software such as Quickbooks. . -
