Solutions
Throughout my career I have always been involved in Information Technology (IT) with a particular focus on how computers can make people's jobs easier, more interesting and hopefully more enjoyable. I have acted as a bridge between business people and IT people.

In the last few years businesses have witnessed a rapid increase in the use of IT to provide solutions to their problems. Such developments have include the growth of Windows operating system, the emergence of cheaper and more powerful personal computers and the phenomenal expansion of the Internet. For may businesses the changes have happened so quickly that they may feel it difficult to keep abreast of IT developments that could benefit their organisation.

I offer a jargon free guide through the IT maze, practical computer solutions and independent advice to help solve your business problems.
