About Me

I’m Gareth O. Evans, a 21, nearly 22 year old, Welsh and a Computer Networking graduate from NEWI / Glyndwr University, Wrexham, but originally from Anglesey.

I have a Foundation Degree and Bachelor of Science Degree from the NEWI / Glyndwr University in Computer Networks which I gained in October 2006, October 2007 respectively.

I was also one of the original founders of NEWI Computing Society, which I was the President of from September 2006 to

I’ve got many interests, mainly computing but I do like a good pint and a spot of course fishing now and again!
