A bit about me

My main priority in life are my family, three children and my awesome wife Cathy.

Currently I am working for a not for profit member funded association as the manager of IT and Infrastructure.

I am a passionate advocate for Open Source software and do my best to promote all manner of open source projects in the corporate environment. I enjoy exploring opportunities and understanding the technical aspects of technology and endeavor to use them as much as I can in business. I try to promote an open communication technique in day to day business situations and use open source community tools to help where I can.

When it comes to sport I enjoy off road motorcycle riding (enduro style), touch football and squash.

I currently hold an RHCE and NCLP and am doing my best, in amongst the roles of daddy and husband, to stay on top of emerging technologies and gadgets.
