Originally from Cape Town, Herschel\u2019s journey with tech began hands-on and full throttle. He spent over a decade as an IT field technician for the South African traffic department.<\/p>\n

From there, he stepped up as head of RFID label programming, then moved into tech support and eventually managed a branch dealing with automotive diagnostic gear. Safe to say, if it plugs in or needs fixing, Herschel\u2019s your guy.<\/p>\n

He\u2019s got a solid set of qualifications too, from CompTIA A+ to Microsoft Azure and Active Directory. His strengths lie in troubleshooting, Windows configuration, setting up LAN and WiFi, and hardware repairs. But don\u2019t box him in \u2013 Herschel\u2019s also mechanically minded and loves getting under the bonnet of a car.<\/p>\n

Outside of work, you\u2019ll find him spinning tracks as an award-winning DJ, printing his next 3D creation, or jamming on the PlayStation. His all-time favourite movie? 1987\u2019s Robocop. He sums himself up in three words: fun, analytical, and realist. Pretty fitting for someone born before social media was a thing, but still thriving in the digital age.<\/p>\n

What our customers say about Herschel<\/strong><\/p>\n

\n

Herschel has been unbelievably good at putting our whole IT package together when we had to purchase two new computers post a move from Auckland to Hawke’s Bay. Herschel and the “Geeks” Team are a great addition to Hawke’s Bay and they provide a first class service, efficiently and competitively. We recommend Herschel and the Geeks Team to anyone with IT or TV issues in Hawke’s Bay – Iain Smart<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Herschel. Great service, very prompt. Solved our problem and added value to other areas. Will definitely be our first port of call in the future – John Clark<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
