Ever since buying my first computer, a Commodore 64, I've been passionate about technology and how it can improve the quality of our lives. The biggest thrill for me is showing an individual, group or company how to effectively use technology to take care of the mundane so they can focus on being creative. I also deeply enjoy arming organizations with the tools, processes and systems they need to grow and scale their businesses.A natural problem solver and talented collaborator, I excel at stepping into a business, identifying both short- and long-term needs, then setting about a plan to address immediate challenges while concurrently positioning the organization for the future. I’m also the one to call when you need to translate complex technical information to laymen, and vice versa. Specialties include infrastructure development, network administration, systems administration, IT project management, Linux deployment, disaster recovery and virtualization.
