Available to hire
I have been working in the technology sector for nearly 20 years – from major platform Wordpress web support, hosting and web security, shell scripting and coding to web design, development, project management and customer support.
As a creative problem-solver, I speak ‘geek’ and ‘normal human’ with equal fluency, which means I feel confident talking to developers as I do with end clients and customers. I’ve run my own company for years, gaining experience in selling products and services, customer support and client interaction. My friendly, well-travelled, well-educated and polite manner helps me work across different cultures and situations.
