Practical Technology Solutions, Built Around Real Needs
Technology doesn’t have to be confusing, intimidating, or overengineered.
I provide clear, reliable technology services designed to help individuals and small businesses solve real problems, understand their tools, and feel confident using them.
Whether you need help fixing an issue, building something new, or learning how to use technology more effectively, my approach is always the same: plain language, no pressure, and solutions that actually make sense for you.
IT Consulting Services
Clear Guidance Without the Jargon
Sometimes you don’t need a repair — you need answers. I provide IT consulting for individuals and small businesses who want honest advice, troubleshooting, and planning without being upsold or talked down to.
How I help:
- Technology troubleshooting and problem analysis
- System reviews and audits
- Hardware and software recommendations
- Workflow and productivity improvements
- Planning upgrades or changes before problems happen
I’m happy to offer a free 15-minute consultation to understand your situation and confirm whether I can help — no pressure, no obligation.
Website Development
Clean, Maintainable Websites Built for Real Use
I build and support websites that are practical, reliable, and easy to maintain — not just something that looks good on day one.
Services include:
- WordPress website development
- Custom PHP & MySQL solutions
- Website fixes, cleanups, and performance improvements
- Hosting setup and configuration
- Ongoing maintenance and updates (optional)
If you already have a site that’s giving you trouble, I can help diagnose what’s wrong and fix only what’s needed.
Application Development
Practical Apps for Real Problems
In addition to web development, I can build simple, purpose-driven applications when a website alone isn’t enough.
Development options:
- Basic Android applications
- Windows desktop applications using Java or .NET
- Internal tools to support workflows or automation
These are ideal for small businesses or individuals who need something functional, lightweight, and tailored to their needs.
Training & Education
Technology Training That Meets You Where You Are
I offer hands-on, personalized training designed to help people actually understand the technology they’re using — not just memorize steps.
Training topics include:
- AI tools and practical AI usage
- WordPress website management
- Email and productivity tools
- General computer skills
- Security and best practices
Training is available one-on-one, and I’m beginning to offer remote classes via Zoom, starting with AI-focused sessions. Training can be tailored to your skill level, goals, and pace.
Fix & Maintain
Reliable Support When Things Go Wrong
When technology breaks, slows down, or starts acting strangely, I can help get things back on track.
Support services include:
- PC repair and performance tuning
- Virus and malware removal
- Operating system installs and upgrades
- Ongoing maintenance and troubleshooting
I’m flexible with scope and understand that some issues take time to properly diagnose and resolve.
Ongoing Maintenance & Support
Predictable Support Without Long-Term Lock-In
WI offer ongoing maintenance and support agreements for organizations that want reliable, professional help without committing to large managed IT contracts.
These agreements are structured around a defined amount of monthly support time, billed at my standard hourly rate. If additional time is ever needed, I’ll discuss it in advance and get approval before proceeding.
Typical maintenance work includes:
- Website and system updates
- Security and software updates
- Performance monitoring and fixes
- General troubleshooting and support
This approach provides consistency and peace of mind, while keeping everything transparent and under your control.
Protect & Secure
Prevention Is Better Than Recovery
Security issues and data loss are stressful — and often preventable. I help clients protect their systems and understand where risks exist.
Protection services include:
- Backup and recovery setup
- System security reviews
- Ransomware and malware prevention guidance
- Account and device security best practices
I can also perform a system audit to identify potential issues before they become serious problems.
How I Work
Straightforward, Flexible, and No Pressure
- $65/hour for standard services
- Free 15-minute consultation to assess your needs
- Flat-rate training packages available
- No hard upsells — recommendations only when they genuinely make sense
If ongoing support or training would be helpful, I’ll explain the option clearly and let you decide.
A Teaching-First Approach
Technology support doesn’t have to mean handing everything off and hoping for the best. I see my role as both a problem-solver and a safety net.
Some clients want me to handle everything for them. Others prefer to stay hands-on and ask questions while they work through an issue themselves. I’m comfortable with both — and everything in between.
My goal is to give you as much help or as little help as you need, while making sure you understand what’s happening and why. When possible, I focus on teaching and explaining so you’re not left dependent or unsure the next time something comes up.
I believe that confidence comes from understanding, and that technology works best when people feel empowered to use it.
