Message

At Chips Enterprise Solutions, I deliver IT consulting, database administration, and systems maintenance for institutional and enterprise clients, including government institutions. I deploy and maintain SQL Server databases, carry out data integrity cleanups, and set up disaster recovery protocols.

I also manage ERP and business software deployments, aligning systems with administrative workflows and regulatory requirements. As a senior technical advisor, I provide staff training and technical onboarding.

At Signet Services (Pty) Ltd, I led enterprise systems deployments involving Sage 50c, Sage 200, Payroll, and Sage Intelligence. I also worked on database administration, automated backups, network stability, and security standards.

Earlier, I co-developed the Climate Data Management System and official web portal at the Meteorological Services Department using Visual Basic 6.0 and MS SQL Server. I’m currently pursuing an MSc in Big Data Analytics at Chinhoyi University of Technology.
