Doug Scard - Technical Director

Doug's computer experience goes all the way back to the Sinclair ZX81 (that's 1981, folks!). He got his Masters degree at Leeds in 1995 and promptly set up a service industry company commissioning one of the internet's first ever websites back in 1996.

Doug began concentrating on web development in 2001, and in 2003 he enrolled in the school of hard knocks and worked for a small e-commerce company, single-handedly running their entire web design and development department.

In 2005 Doug joined Helen in Sputnik to expand the company's portfolio of services and skills. He is the chap who figures out the best technical solutions to every given project. He also tends to be the guy you are likely to meet at Networking events and when he calls into your office to discuss your project.

However, Doug is not 100% pure Geek; he is an accomplished musician and whenever he can squeeze a little spare time between his work, home and fatherly duties, he currently plays bass guitar in a few bands ranging from Jazz to Motown with just a touch of camp Disco.
