Open and honest about his own Mental Health and Disabilities, but in a humorous and entertaining way that puts people at ease and encourages conversation.

With IT experience covering all the job titles from Sales to Developer, Helpdesk to IT Manager, Networking to DBA, Consultant to Solution Architect and many more it's definitely a case of "Been there, done that, got the t-shirt (or socks, stickers etc)".

Preferring to give sessions that encourage discussion over lecture, and conversation over death by PowerPoint, but always guaranteeing people will take away something new and a call to action. Whilst having a bit of a laugh in the process.

Mad about the Microsoft Business Applications space including Power Platform and Dynamics 365, but with a core focus on Accessibility and Inclusion.

Outside of tech you will find a proud Nerd & Geed (Neek?) who loves Sci-Fi, Fantasy, Technology and more. A family man and a massive petrol head and sports fan (F1, F2, MotoGP, WEC, Rugby, Cricket, Snooker, BTCC... to name a few sports)
