John started his IT career as a mature age student over 20 years ago and graduated with a Degree in Applied Science (Maths and Computing) with Distinction.

He got his first IT Job at MEB (now Ergon Energy) at the very start of the PC era. John worked at MEB for six years as a software developer and IT Support Officer, gaining valuable experience working on large projects. He Left MEB to start his own local business (Veltech Computer Services) which he operated for thirteen years. He built a successful business based principally on personal service and value for money but attributes long-term success to good quality and loyal clients, many of whom supported the business for over ten years.

In early 2008, John decided to merge his business with iScape to form a complete, one-stop shop for professional IT Services in Mackay and district.
