Current Profession: Owner of 'Consult-Eco', a service
provider dealing with ecology survey work (specialising in invertebrates),
ecological training, the teaching of life sciences to junior and senior
school children via entomology; lecturing on entomology to various groups;
leading field-trips (children & adults), and developing green organisation
web-sites.
General Summary:
Entomology & Ecology:
For the past twenty years I have been developing an expertise in a
number of orders of invertebrates and during this time have been heavily
involved in conducting informal site surveys for conservation purposes.
For the past 6 years I have been Honorary Secretary for the Lancashire
& Cheshire Entomological Society and Editor of the society's quarterly
Newsletter. This period has also seen involvement with more formalised
invertebrate surveying and with the development of lecturing both to
school children and to adult societies on invertebrates, their conservation,
habitat development, breeding, studying and their relevance to the schools
National Curriculum attainment targets.
Core expertise is offered in training in entomological techniques and
in surveying and identification services for lepidoptera (macro &
micro-moths & butterflies), symphyta (sawflies), solitary-wasp groups
of aculeate hymenoptera, with a lesser expertise in a number of coleoptera
(beetles) [particularly Carabidae - Ground Beetles] and diptera (flies)
[particularly Tephritidae - Picture-wing Flies and Syrphidae - Hoverflies]
families. Ancillary expertise in a number of these other areas, particularly
in coleoptera and freshwater invertebrates, can be provided if so required.
Computing expertise in the development of web-sites to promote companies,
green organisations, schools and individuals can be readily provided.
Information
Technology & Business:
I have been in the Information Technology industry, within the Employment
Department, for the past 23 years and during that time have developed
an in depth feel for the changes in the industry. My career has encompassed
the technical side including programming in a number of differing languages
as well as the development of IT Strategies to lead the Department forward
and Quality Management Systems to ensure that the right procedures are
put in place and that they evolve with the business changes of the Department.
My strengths lie in an ability to rapidly identify ways in which problems
can be tackled by the application of the current and emerging technologies
combined with both the Project Management skills needed to see the tasks
through from inception to implementation, as well as an ability to identify
and make the best use of the skills and positive involvement of other
team members.
Guitar:
Twenty four years playing acoustic blues and ragtime finger-picking
guitar. Five years as part of a duo playing the same type of music and
performing at pubs, outdoor shows, craft fairs and charity functions.
Fifteen years running a country-wide guitar players club called the
"Tape 'n' Tab Club". Five years undertaking personal guitar tuition
to all ages. Five years experience giving finger-picking guitar lessons
at Halewood Community Comprehensive School - this course was extended
from 10 weeks to a full year on the express request of the students,
and it has continued ever since.

Setting up and developing a new "Employment Department Business
Register" system involving an extremely large database, document management,
