THE KNOWLEDGE
What I do at Q2Q:
On a daily basis, I work on resolving IT issues for our clients – and my skillset adapts according to the needs of each individual customer. This can include anything from solving basic – and often the most frustrating – problems like fixing a printer, through to more complex issues such as server infrastructure deployment.
I’m often traveling to visit businesses that are in need of an IT saviour or working on proposals for new and existing clients.
I enjoy overseeing new projects so that, when relationships evolve, we can ensure – from an IT perspective – firms’ growth, office move or induction of new team members, is as seamless as possible.
I also drive the rest of the team insane with my singing!
Background and Achievements
I joined Q2Q when the business was part of the IT department for the Tulchan Group, over 14 years ago. This was my first full-time role straight out of college. I have enjoyed being part of the company and watching it grow from three members of staff to the nine-strong team we have today.
I find it hard to pinpoint specific achievements, as one of my personal values is to always exceed your own expectations. But if you asked my wife, she would say being a great dad to my two boys!
Another great couple of achievements for me is getting 76 miles to the gallon on the motorway and being able to finally grow stubble.
Hobbies and Interests
I aim to train in Muay Thai twice a week and go to the gym religiously.
Additionally, I can juggle and have always wanted to learn knife throwing.
