Chris Morsley

Kirby is a highly effective sales leader. He has a commanding presence yet he is able to empathise and connect with people. He is capable of bringing organisational insights, and solutions to the table that make a difference. I highly recommend his business acumen, his people skills and, not least of all, his sense of humour.

Leon Czechowicz

Kirby is passionate about technology and his enthusiasm percolates to those around him. He is energetic and thorough in his approach to providing the best customer service regarding the technology he is supporting.
