Michael
University of Aberdeen
Computing Science PhD or MSc
Hello there,
I am currently studying Information Technology with the goal of building a career in information systems protection.
Before I enrolled into the MSc IT at UoA, I worked as a freelance photographer, while running a photo printing and framing business. And before that, I co-founded a company that sought to connect customers to their favourite brands by helping them discover deals/discounts from these brands.
In between then and now, I have worked as an events management executive, and as a trainers' trainer.
Before moving to Aberdeen, I lived in Mauritius with my family.
I eagerly look forward to helping you settle in quickly.
