Riley Warhurst
Experience: Once again, we’ve broken our policy of not hiring members of the same family because the value Riley brings to our team was too good to pass. Riley achieved his Cert II and Cert III in ICT whilst working with another IT company for 2 years as a help desk technician diagnosing IT issues and remotely repairing computer problems. He decided to move his services to The Computer Workshop where he has a team of technicians to share his knowledge and upskill in other areas of technology. Riley has a passion for building computers dating back to when he was at primary school. His dad can’t remember a time when he wasn’t pulling apart someone’s PC and rebuilding it to make it run more efficiently. He also enjoys helping people improve their operating systems and Microsoft Office 365. Add this to his experience in C# scripting, , coding, 3D modelling and augmented reality for online gaming and we have another great technician on our team.
Biography:
Riley is a budding petrol-head and loves to drive his silver 2014 Holden Commodore SV6 Storm which just has to be a manual. He’s a hard core gamer and even does twitch streaming where people subscribe to watch him play. When not gaming or driving his car, Riley enjoys a good workout at the gym.
Brett Sterling
Experience: Brett has over 25 years of professional experience working in IT in a diverse range of roles and environments. He has been a professional software application developer (programmer) who has developed commercial business applications used by over 1,000 law firms in Australia and created and marketed his document management solution to 400+ schools in Australia as well as to hundreds of small/medium businesses across the world. Most recently he was the head of IT for a large manufacturing business in the building sector on the Gold Coast where he built, managed, and supported their corporate server and desktop environments for all staff as well as developing the SQL data warehouse and wrote a custom all in one workflow management software to track jobs and centralise data. He is equally at home whether performing custom software development, IT Engineering, or traditional support roles. This comes in very handy for situations that require an all-in-one approach, or when issues are spread across these IT roles. Brett is a natural problem solver who enjoys the hunt for the right solution, no matter how difficult or obscure.
Biography:
Brett spends his free time working on Holden classics, currently his customised LS1 V8-powered WH Statesman.
