About Me

BCC was dissolved and County IT was outsourced to Aptel (UK) limited where he worked until October 1998, when he took up the roll of Helpdesk manager for Ventana (UK) limited.(VUK)

As well as supporting VUK customer networks in the UK and throughout Europe over the telephone, his secondary role was traveling to customer sites, setting up and supporting mobile networks in the UK, Europe, USA, Japan, Singapore, Canada, and Kazakhstan for electronic meetings. During the year 2000 he completed his studies and qualified as a Microsoft Certified Systems Engineer (MCSE).
