Hi, there!
My name is Phil and I’m an IT Pro working in education. Currently employed in a K-12 school, I am based in Queensland, Australia.
I have a passion to see technology help people in their day-to-day. In the education space, learning is the goal. Technology should be there to support the learning, not direct it. I am passionate about seeing students reach their goals and thoroughly enjoy being part of the process.
An analogy I enjoy sharing is that technology is just a tool that can be used for good or not so good. Just think: a hammer can be used to build a house or bludgeon someone to death!
