Located in Milwaukee, WI, I service the greater Milwaukee
area. In addition, I provide various IT services remotely for clients across the United States.
With over 35 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. Click HERE to view a copy of my current resume in Adobe Acrobat.
