  About Me

Located in Oak Creek, WI, I service the greater Milwaukee area. In addition, I provide various IT services remotely for clients across the United States.

With over 20 years of computer and technology experience, I have the knowledge and expertise to help you and your staff manage your information technology systems and projects, big and small. I understand the importance of computer systems security, system interruption planning and matching client needs and budgets to the right systems. I also understand that your customers demand that you have efficient and current technology to meet their needs.

I began my technology career in the United States Air Force troubleshooting sophisticated avionics systems on high-tech aircraft. I continued my career working as Director of Information Systems in the financial and credit industry. In the financial industry, customers depended on me to link my company’s systems to theirs in order to service their needs in a “real-time” environment. These needs included establishing secure remote network connections to process numerous daily transactions.

With years of experience training staff, assisting customers and helping management with systems-related projects, I have learned to communicate on a common level. Many people do not want to hear the technical jargon associated with their computer systems. They just want them to work – efficiently, effectively and consistently.
