Eddy is dedicated, hardworking, innovative and proactive. Eddy has demonstrated over the years that he can act independently, using his extensive personal knowledge and people skills to handle many challenging situations. These would include facilities that are not to standard, equipment that is inappropriate and also staff whose own image of their ability is often not quite what the reality is demonstrating. In all of these situations Eddy has been able to bring any problem to a solution and always seeks the extra information if not sure or, when needed, researches the answer.
