Hey.
Welcome to my website. Hopefully it'll give you an insight into my world & myself.
Welcome to my website. Hopefully it'll give you an insight into my world & myself.
With a wide range of technical knowledge, I've spent the last 19 years within IBM UK Ltd, working with IBM Tivoli Storage Manager (formally ADSTAR, and lately Spectrum Protect) in varying guises, eg,
More recently, I've become Lead Architect for Server Lifecycle Automation tooling, which includes product sets such as Continuous Compliance, Self Service Delivery and Automated Server Build. I'm very passionate about the work I do & supporting my colleagues, and involved in alot of mentoring, both in the UK and my colleagues in India.
Originally from Newcastle, however lived in West Yorkshire (1 year), Warwickshire (18 years) and now Oxfordshire (1 year up until now). I work for IBM as an Infrastructure Architect, where I am a Tooling & Automation Lead Architect, but originally have a background in Backup & Recovery and Disaster Recovery. Outside of work, I coach Chinnor Ladies FC & Bicester Town Colt Boys - I currently hold a UEFA B qualified outfield coach, a FA Level 2 Goal Keeping Coach, as well as attending FA Youth Module 1,2&3 courses. Previously coached for Leamington Brakes, University of Warwick Ladies, and the Leamington Lions u18s and 1st Team.
Outside the full time job, I'm a keen runner, finishing first in my category in the Upper Heyford Park 5km run (v40). I also run Goalkeeping Coaching sessions, concentrating at the moment on junior and ladies development. Sessions are currently being ran out of Chinnor FC, on Saturdays throughout July (8th, 15th and 22nd). I will be looking to expand this, and already had requests for men's coaching&development.
