About Us | GPS Tracking Consultancy

Biography

From illegal ivory and luxury chocolate bars to perfumes and packets of cigarettes, I’ve had a lot of fun working out how to track a wide range of objects around the world. The creative challenge is enjoyable, but the reality always needs to be kept front of mind — my clients approach me with a serious problem to be solved and apart from thinking tracking technology may solve it, they have no idea how to go about it.

Working with various organisations, companies and police departments using GPS trackers as part of covert intelligence or corporate investigations I have gained significant experience of implementing GPS tracking technology.
