My goal is to bring technology and my skill set to businesses, organisations and enterprises. I provide quality products and services at reasonable prices. No matter how technical the product is, I push to provide interfaces that anyone can relate to and use.
I am a reliable, self-motivated and determined worker who enjoys variety and challenge. I thrive on human interaction and the opportunity to improve productivity in whatever task I am part of, regardless of how big or small it may be. I am personally driven by customer satisfaction and make this my ultimate goal in any task or duty.
In 2009, I visited Cape Town, South Africa and volunteered for the November Township Trust. Worked mainly as a roofer and labourer with a fantastic bunch of people
Barretstown is a wonderful Irish charity that I've been fortunate enough to volunteer for in previous years.
