Expertise Forged Through a Lifetime of Passion.
My journey in technology started with a broken computer at age 4. Today, that lifelong passion and enterprise-level experience are dedicated to ensuring your business’s technology runs flawlessly. I don’t just manage IT; I live and breathe it.
My Story: A Lifelong Passion for Technology
The Foundation
From Hardware to High-Level Code. My fascination with technology is not just a career; it’s been my life’s focus since I was a child. This journey has given me a rare, full-stack understanding of how technology works, from the physical hardware up to complex enterprise software.
From Curiosity to Corporate Solutions
My journey began at age 4, taking apart and reassembling my first computer. By 2009, I was installing my first OS, shifting my focus from hardware to software. This passion quickly grew—I became proficient in about ten coding languages and, at age 12, designed my first website in PHP. With my first domain and hosting, courtesy of my father, I mastered the cPanel/Linux environment, a skill I still use today. This deep dive led me to build my own lab environment with dedicated servers to test everything meticulously before it ever reaches a client. At 15, I left school to focus on coding, developing desktop applications in the .NET framework. This dedication culminated in my first official company, WillowCom, where at 18, I was contracted to deliver high-level bug fixes for global giants like LexisNexis GRC/IA, Petronas, and the Siemens Sales Incentive Tool.
The Birth of MisterX: A New Philosophy
Why MisterX Was Born
After proving my skills at an enterprise level, I took a deliberate three-year break from entrepreneurship to work within various companies. My goal was unique: to learn how businesses operate from the inside, to understand the employee experience, and to see firsthand what works—and what doesn’t—in corporate IT and client service.
I saw a gap between impersonal, large-scale providers and the dedicated, agile, and deeply knowledgeable partnership that businesses truly need. MisterX Technologies was born at the end of 2023 from that insight: to combine my enterprise-level technical expertise with the personal accountability and strategic, client-first approach I knew was missing in the market.
