For 35 years, I have provided IT support for law and consulting firms, defense contractors, manufacturing and retail companies, ensuring they have secure, dependable technology handled by someone they can trust so they can focus on their work, not computer issues. 

I have led major projects from email migration to phone system implementation, backup systems to data management, office moves, and all manner of local and wide area network security.  I also have trusted vendors I can bring in to support telephone systems, databases, internet services, and equipment acquisition.
