Consulting
I have been consulting to business and government since the early 1990's. I have always been fascinated by technology and this has resulted in a lot of experience with different systems.
I am an expert in network design, both wired and wireless. Whether you are thinking about LORA or Bluetooth or simply WI-FI, I can examine your requirements and make the best recommendation.
I work with all electronic devices and operating systems. I recommend Linux for servers due to their lowest cost and unparalleled performance and reliability.
I have run several businesses in the IT domains. I have imported and exported goods from overseas. I was also a commercial pilot for many years.
I don't just recommend the same solution over and over again. When I meet with you, I will make an effort to understand your business and I will take time to learn about your industry. This enables me to provide you with a detailed plan for the best solution that is based on current technologies.
I am a champion of new technology, but I don't believe in sacrificing security or reliability for the latest fad. I tend to recommend a cautious approach that uses well established and dependable solutions.
If you are starting a business or have a growing business I can talk to you about your options and likely future challenges, and together we can plan the best strategy for your future success.
