My Story
Hello, I'm Peter.
I love what I do... supporting charities, not-for-profit and humanitarian organisations to get the best out of using technology.
​
I've been extremely fortunate to have worked for some great organisations, implementing technical I.T. projects around the world.
​
Having a technical and business background has certainly helped, along with a sense of humour, collaborative approach and a strong belief in using technology to do good things!
