Technology and innovation
I'm a seasoned executive with a deep-rooted passion for technology, particularly in
the realms of software and data. My journey began in the picturesque
Boesmansriviermond, a small village nestled along the stunning Eastern Cape
coastline of South Africa. This beautiful, rural backdrop of my childhood sparked a
contrasting fascination in technology that has stayed with me throughout my life.
The beginning of my technological journey
After completing my studies, I embarked on my professional journey by developing a
computerized quality system for my father's manufacturing business. This project not
only honed my technical skills but also instilled in me a profound appreciation for
practical, real-world applications of technology.
Global impact through technology
Over the years, I've had the privilege of building software and data solutions for
some
of the largest industries globally, including Manufacturing, Finance, and
Healthcare. My
expertise primarily revolves around the Microsoft and Azure ecosystems, where I've
successfully navigated and contributed to various complex projects.
Photography: my creative escape
Beyond my professional endeavors, photography is my serious hobby. As a loyal Nikon
enthusiast, I capture the world through my lens, bringing together my love for
technology and art. This hobby is more than just a pastime; it's a creative outlet
that
complements my technical skills and broadens my perspective.
Family: my cornerstone
Family is my cornerstone. I am blessed with a loving wife and two wonderful teenage
daughters, who are the center of my universe. Their support and love fuel my
ambitions
and endeavors.
Finding peace in the wilderness
Interestingly, despite my deep engagement with technology, I have a profound love for
the
wilderness, especially the African savannah. This might seem ironic for a
technophile,
but it's in these natural landscapes that I find peace and inspiration.
Traveling: creating lifelong memories
Traveling with my family is one of my greatest joys. Exploring new places together,
experiencing different cultures, and creating lifelong memories is something we
cherish
deeply.
Let's collaborate to innovate
In summary, I am a technology enthusiast with a diverse set of interests and a strong
family foundation. My career has been a journey of learning, growth, and
contributing to
various sectors through technology. I bring this wealth of experience, passion, and
a
unique perspective to every project I undertake. Let's collaborate to create
innovative
solutions that make a difference!
