Bio
Seamus B.
Ash is an exceptional systems administrator and his track record speaks for itself. As WebOps Lead, Ash mentored a very capable team, managed the priorities of multiple development teams and introduced a number of initiatives to improve the reliability and transparency of what was previously a "black box" service line – and always with a positive attitude!
Troy Sheehan
Ash goes above and beyond in service to his clients, he has assisted me many times with major and minor technical issues resulting in fast, reliable solutions. Even today (April 2013) I come across clients in my own line of work who have used Ash and swear he single handedly invented computers and nothing would run without him. With excellent customer service and continual knowledge improvement through self education and courses; Ash would be an asset on anyones team.
