Well what to say about me. I’m hard working, hard playing awesome guy. :) There is very little that can drop my spirit and my 'Yes-Man' mentality. Ask me to do something and 10 to 1 I'll umm ahh and shout 'yes-Man'

There are a few quotes that I live by.

* There are 10 kinds of people in the world. Those who understand Binary and Those who don't.

* Aim for the impossible coz when it happens you won’t look all surprised.

* If you need coding done Don’t ask Carl.

Now a little about me and my IT life. I never really got into the whole 'IT' bug that took everyone until Std 9 when I had to decide on what to do with my life. But once I started I couldn’t stop. 3 short years at Varsity College and another 2 years globetrotting finds me back in the best city in the world Durban. Now everything I do is IT related at work and at home.

I then found myself starting at AAT. A day that will always be remembered as Black Friday. This has been the step I've been looking for for the past few years as I'm looking to work with SQL as much as possible and AAT can provide me this role.

My hope is to be at AAT for many years and for me to build up a full knowledge of SQL and the environments it's found in.

* Doug is an official member of the AAT Cake Regulatory Team

Douglas has been with AAT since August 2009.
