Rooted in a family-oriented upbringing, Jim’s academic pursuits include studies in Computer Science, Economics and a Masters in Information Technology. He embraces a problem-solving approach that involves breaking down complexities into manageable steps, prioritising simplicity over unnecessary intricacies.

Family is unique in Jim’s life, with a supportive wife and four children. Through life’s significant events, Jim has documented his experiences, recognising the challenges created by gatekeepers at each milestone.
