Tim’s passion in computing began at a young age. An early starter in electronics from wiring a plug at the age of 3 and writing code for his father’s Amstrad PCW and BBCs from around age 8, the desire to explore and learn has culminated in Tim being both passionate and highly skilled.

Tim graduated from The University of Sheffield with First-Class Honours in Computer Software Engineering (BEng) in 2005.

After graduating, Tim worked on a range of basic e-commerce projects for Neil Cooper. Together they established Preventx, as Tim saw great potential in the business and was keen to be part of its success.

Tim’s passion for the interface between electronics, computer systems and the internet has been instrumental in the development of Preventx’s systems. A keen interest in home automation and “the internet of things” has transferred well over to the businesses electronic and control processes.
