THE PRECISIONIST

What I do at Q2Q:

I am the technical lead here at Q2Q whilst also being a member of the management team.

I oversee the technical solutions for new and existing clients, whether this be introducing new technologies or improving on existing ones. I also oversee client projects from a solutions perspective. I work closely with our vendors whilst also being a senior engineer working on resolving escalated tickets and high priority (crisis) issues.

Background and Achievements

I started my working life in supply chain, where I naturally transitioned to implementing a new ERP system for the same company. This project sparked my passion for IT, following which I promptly made the decision to study IT (in particular Network Engineering) at university whilst also gaining a part time entry job in the role. Following my graduation, I worked full time as a technical support engineer then I progressed to a senior technical support engineer, then into a team leader role and finally where I am now technical lead and a member of the management team.

Hobbies and Interests

I enjoy spending time with my family, friends, being outside, dogs, music, food, enjoying a good game or watching a good film.

Welcoming, laid-back environment that promotes growth and learning opportunities.

A rally car driver (Still do!).

Singing around the house.

Amsterdam.

Teleportation.

Hardworking, friendly, funny.

A strange talent to mimic varies artists/songs.

Music, food and being outside.

I love rap/hip-hop, drum and bass and so many different bands and singers, it’s too hard to choose a favourite!

Not really my thing but if I had to sing a song on Karaoke it would be: Seventeen Going Under by Sam Fender.

Hmmm tough question maybe horror films.

Continue to progress my knowledge in networking with a focus on technologies such as VXLAN to improve scalability, redundancy and flexibility for networks whilst eliminated or reducing the need for older protocols such as STP. Focusing more on cloud infrastructure such as Azure and looking into better monitoring technologies for networks/systems.

Bit boring but generally really love Apple iCloud and the all the features it offers.
