ABOUT ME

Firstly, let me tell you a bit about myself. Up until September 2000, I was employed by Microsoft as its Technical Director for the Asia Pacific region. I resigned my position due to the effects of an illness I acquired (as described herein). I have been involved in the computer or technical related industries for over 30 years now. Apart from Microsoft, I worked with companies like Informix, Apple Computer, Texas Instruments and Pirelli-Ericsson. I am a bachelor degree-qualified Electrical Engineer, with a further post graduate degree in Finance and a Masters in Business Administration. I have worked for some innovative companies. These companies taught me a great deal and influenced my approach to doing business, challenging the status quo, asking questions, searching for answers and resolving complex problems. As a result of my technical background I have a keen understanding of computers, control systems and electronics. Much of what I have learnt in the past 30 years working with computers and control systems has an uncanny resemblance to my more recent learning of the workings of the human body, especially the nervous system.

I have always been actively involved in sport from an early age, playing it at representative levels and have never been overweight or had any medical problems to speak of. I have ridden surfboards for the majority of my life, played Rugby Union, Rugby League, Australian Rules, Touch Football, done Karate and participated in many other sports. Thus it was quite disturbing and almost unbelievable that when I needed help from doctors in relation to a condition I seemed to have acquired, that they would dismiss my condition as simply a 'normal' part of the aging process. It was this response from doctors and a lot of other 'rubbish' that would test my perseverance, resilience and patience and cause me to commence a journey of discovery. This journey would see me not only arriving at the end of my own suffering, but also allow me to help other people rid themselves of their pain and suffering.
