I am an experienced professional with over 25 years experience in Software Development and Network Engineering, having worked in a variety of sectors globally as an architect and leading a team. During the past 20 years I have gained experience in several programming languages and networking products. I am passionate about architecture and design, connectivity and Linux. My main expertise areas are Linux, Embedded Linux and Cisco networking.
My goal has always been to provide innovative solutions, whether this is a kernel driver, a server platform, or a bespoke networking solution.
Having over 20 years of experience in mostly operational roles has also allowed me to expand my responsibilities in other areas, transitioning to the responsibilities of an architect or lead engineer.
My strengths lie in coaching engineers, taking responsibility, designing (technical) solutions and transferring knowledge to others, both inside and outside the team.
My core competencies are my deep technical knowledge, my ability to liaise with non-technical people, and my ability to creatively devise and apply solutions to any given problem. I intend to use my competencies to improve my technical and organisational leadership. Having completed three courses in influencing and leadership, I know I am well suited to roles that allow me to remain connected with technology and people.
In my spare time I enjoy keeping my technical knowledge up-to-date. I experiment with technologies in my home laboratory, read literature and discuss this with others. Recently this has involved IPv6 PI address space, BGP, IXPs, VPNs, Linux, Cisco routers and VMWare ESXi.
I also enjoy spending time with my family, reading, photography or watching a movie.
