Hi! I'm Adam. I'm an advertising addict, an avid coder, an early adopter of tech, and I also love to write, play & listen to music. This site should give you a bit of an idea of what I've done in the past, and where I'm going. Enjoy!
I thrive working in a team that is encouraging and supportive, an environment that is challenging and requires creative problem solving and thinking on my feet. I have over four years’ experience working in customer service & administration, I study a Bachelor of Business and Creative Industries & have a keen interest in technology.
