Little-known perk of ex-Microsoft life: eternal bragging rights while fixing friends and families computers. "How do you know how to update Windows,?" "Worked there, mate." Downside? I also have to fix friends and families computers

Well, nine months later, I'm running a company that employs five people and supports communities. I'm currently sitting in a hotel in New York, refining our H2 strategy, overlooking the city skyline. Didn't have this one on the 2024 bingo card.
Sometimes, life takes you places you wouldn’t think about. If you told me 5 years ago, a lad from Barnsley, that I’d be sitting in an office in Switzerland looking at a fantastic view, running a capability and meeting customers. I wouldn’t have believed you. Tech is crazy 🤣
