Bio
Jeremy Webb
Owen has very wide ranging experience over a number of years in the IT industry. From my experience, he has extensive knowledge of networking and running Windows environments as well as being able to provide comprehensive corporate IT solutions, often overcoming extreme technical challenges to always provide cost effective, workable solutions. He has also proved capable of learning on the job, often having to find solutions to issues where he does not have prior technical knowledge. He is very capable of researching these areas and implementing very satisfactory solutions. I would have no hesitation in recommending him for technical IT roles.
