Individuals
Are you interested in one-on-one help? I offer personalized instruction and support and will meet you at your home or office. In contrast to a traditional IT person I focus on the client first and the computer second. My expertise covers both Windows and Mac computers, as well as mobile devices from Apple, Android, and tech devices from various companies. With over 20 years of experience in adult education, my commitment is to assist each student in acquiring the knowledge to achieve their goals by unlocking the power of technology through knowledge, education, and support.
