Hello everyone!
I’m Andy, a thirty year old, “born and bred” in a small seaside town called Hartlepool.
Located in the north east of England, us “Hartlepudlians” are labelled as Monkey Hangers, thanks to our ancestors, who decided to hang a monkey claiming it was a spy during the napoleon wars of 1803 – 1815

My Journey in IT (Timeline)
How did I initially become interested in IT? What challenges have I faced along the way?

Skateboarding
If you can’t see me behind a desk, there’s a good chance I’m putting in blood sweat and tears into my favourite sport, skateboarding. Check this out page if you’re intrigued 🙂
I have a passion for technology and enjoy experimenting with new gadgets and software.
In my free time, I enjoy skateboarding, gaming and cryptocurrency!
I am also interested in web design and development and have recently decided to start this blog as my new web project for 2023 🙂
I am excited to share my knowledge and experiences with you through this blog and I hope you find it informative and helpful.
