My name is Luke, I'm 30 and currently looking to continue my career within the field of information technology. IT is what I enjoy and is the area of work that I excel most at.
My interests in IT and computing range from: hardware builds, troubleshooting and repair, to web design, SEO and social networking. I also have a vast knowledge of software and regularly beta test for Microsoft and other major software companies.
I am punctual and reliable and work well either independently or as part of a team.
MAJOR ACHIEVEMENT

It was noted that I had quickly mastered a new bespoke software solution and had started giving informal training to my colleagues. It became apparent that I was the right person to train staff and push the development of the software. I worked tirelessly to train over 300 members of staff.
