Ruth has been working in the IT and Web Design industry for the past six years, ranging from being a Microsoft Certified engineer through to her present role as Director of Virya Technologies.

Ruth formed the company originally as a small business in her spare time, but when the opportunity presented to go full time, she jumped at the opportunity.

She now leads a small team based in Ipswich, Suffolk, who specialise in open source technologies - specifically the Joomla! Content Management System for website design - who are rapidly gaining a solid reputation in this competitive area.
