Our team here includes MCT, MCSE + I, Land Surveyors (odd for a IT Company).

Our owner, Glenn OConnor, started his working career as a Land Surveyor in South Africa (our home country). He enjoyed it until it starting getting dangerous working in Low cost developments where dead bodies were found, and after pay day, and a few drinks, the locals started pretending that it was a war.

He went and worked in the UK, as a surveyor for a year, and then was missing the weather and people in South Africa. He returned and did his MCP, MCSE, MCSE + I, MCT.

He then trained at the academy, until the owners emmigrated to Australia.

He was offer a job at a web development company. Here he starting learning web development. The company developed web sites using Allaira Coldfusion (has changed to Macromedia Coldfusion, then Adobe Coldfusion).

He developed a few online stores, a gambling portal, online lottery (a free one and a live one hosted in Curacao).

He ended up being the director of an online casino group. Here he worked for 5 years, until he resigned, due to wanting to pursue other goals.
