Hi, I'm Mick! An IT Service Delivery maestro by day, and a visual virtuoso behind the lens by night, I seamlessly blend technical precision with creative flair.

 A seasoned IT professional with a quirky twist - I've enlisted the help of ChatGPT to whip up this introduction for me! My journey through the IT landscape began in 2007 when I donned the hat of a support specialist. From those humble beginnings, I've taken a scenic route up the corporate ladder and now find myself at the helm of a global team of IT support wizards, ensuring that large corporations run like well-oiled machines.

 Now, here's where it gets interesting. Amid all the tech jargon, I've always harbored a secret creative identity. My artistic adventures commenced at the tender age when I first tinkered with piano keys at 8, attempted guitar riffs at 14, and dabbled in photo editing at 16 (too bad ChatGPT wasn't around then). This dual love for technology and creativity led me to pursue a degree in computer science. But wait, there's more! I couldn't resist further nurturing my artistic side with studies in multimedia arts. Initially, I funneled my creative juices into web design and development, but as fate would have it, I stumbled upon my true calling: videography.

 Beyond the confines of corporate life, I have a not-so-secret passion for playing brain-twisting video games that challenge both my intellect and creativity. Whether I'm cracking complex puzzles or weaving intricate digital narratives, I'm always up for an adventure. Armed with a unique blend of IT expertise and an AI-driven sense of humor, I'm here to devise innovative solutions and capture life's beauty through the lens of my camera.
