I have been in the commercial digital signage and IT industry for over 10 years working on large networks such as WHSmith, Cabvision, Baby TV, In4health and Surgery Media Systems Ltd.  I have been involved in most aspects of digital signage and IT including project management, installations, consultancy, development, troubleshooting, maintenance, training, management and support.

My most recent digital signage project started towards the end of 2008 when I was asked to join Surgery Media Systems Ltd (SMS) and head the project management and development of a brand new ground breaking digital signage network. After 8 months of development, design work, testing and plenty of late nights and strong coffee, a final version was completed. The patient infoPoint system was available to dental practices and GP surgeries throughout the UK in 2009.

More recently, I have been involved in freelance work for Icon, Scala, Remote Media and a number of digital signage agencies.

My development experience platforms include PHP, ASP, Javascript, CSS, mySQL, MSSQL, Visual Basic 6, VBScript, Scala, XML, DOS batch files.  Read this article for a comprehensive overview.

I am currently developing additional skills in Visual Studio 2010, Facebook Markup, Facebook Applications and iPhone Xcode.
