Computer Services
I started in the IT industry in 1978, learning to service Apple II's. During the next 22 years I was employed in a variety of different roles, ranging from hardware repair to Network specialist, security consultant, Product Manager & Technical Manager. In Feb 2000, I joined thethe academic staff at Manukau Institute of Technology, became a Senior Lecturer, and have recently left their employ to concentrate on other projects. This small IT company is one such project.
I enjoy working with people, and putting my skills to work solving computing-related problems that may need more than a single discipline to fix successfully.
I have drawers full of industry certifications, the most recent being from Cisco & Microsoft 2015
