Gijs Nelissen (gijs.nelissen)

ICT Sales Consultant and Internet Entrepreneur.

Passionate IT Professional with broad experience in all aspects of (web) application development, management and infrastructure. My experience in application development, people management and solution architectures make me a very "hands-on" ICT expert. Focusing on sales of (large-scale) web application development projects in combination with the management of two technology driven startups.

As an individual i am very hands-on, direct, stubborn (when i think i am right) and creative. At the same time i am impatient with not making progress and have a bad habit of seeing things too black/white. I try to live by the idea "Be a problem solver, not a problem starter".

Being passionate, creative and using strong communication skills I do a good job at and making it easy to understand and to buy complex technical solutions. Working in an "agency"-business model i am continuously improving and evaluating my ability to work with "short attention spans". We move fast, jump from one thing to another and need to get many things done in a day. So, i need to be a good juggler…and have a sense of urgency to get it done now.
