<header><h3 class="title">Ex-Web Developer / I.T. Contractor - Soon To Be A Professional Brewer</h3>
|
|
<h4 class="status">Current Status: <span class="statustext">In contract</span></h4>
|
|
<p class="resumedescription p-summary"><p>I am very passionate about craft beer and am working tirelessly towards establishing our own craft beer brewery in my wife's hometown in rural Japan.<br/><br/>
|
|
<p>I was a skilled Wintel Infrastructure specialist with experience covering an array of technologies. My expertise lay within the realm of web servers/services, however I am exceptionally versatile and could add value to any scenario.<br/><br/>
|
|
My main strengths are that I am a workhorse, I love to investigate and solve complex problems and I communicate very well. Equally capable of collaborating within a team or powering on under my own initiative, I thrive under pressure and love to be challenged!<br/><br/>
|
|
Additionally, I enjoyed streamlining processes by introducing automation through the creation of scripts, desktop or web applications where appropriate and to facilitate this I was constantly expanding my programming/scripting language portfolio.</p></header>
