About


I have great life experience and together with my wife have bought up two great successful young adults who have now left our family home, so I now have more free time to pass on my experiences and life lessons to other people. I have been in various Management positions in Consumer Electronics and more recently the Automotive industry, I now have the opportunity to take some time out from my full time working life to pass on the experiences and knowledge I have gained throughout my career and personal life. I have extensive travel experience and I hope I can make some difference to other people’s life’s through sharing my experiences. I am passionate about repairing items and love difficult challenges. I am a good troubleshooter of mechanical and electronic equipment, often helping others with their home repairs or vehicle issues. I love to travel and enjoy all types of sports and outdoor activities. I have years of experience looking after my elderly father who was suffering from a Traumatic Brain Injury and was unable to move unassisted. He has recently unfortunately passed away, so I now would like to devote my time to assisting others with their needs.
