ABOUT ME

With over 40 years of experience in the IT industry, my journey began with the Commodore VIC-20 and has spanned the evolution of modern technology. Early in my days I played with emerging technologies which continue to shape the IT landscape today. My hands-on experience with Bulletin Board Systems (BBS), the early Internet, and foundational platforms like DOS and UNIX has given me a unique perspective on the industry’s growth. From the earliest days of the computer revolution in the 1980s to the modern IT era, I have remained at the forefront, continually honing my skills to meet the challenges of today's business environment.

My experience is both broad and deep, allowing me to effectively support complex IT infrastructures. I pride myself on having the technical knowledge to address nearly any IT-related issue that arises. One of my core specialties is disaster recovery, a vital service for businesses facing unexpected crises. Often, my first engagement with a client occurs when they face a critical failure. Whether it's an Internet outage, a workstation malfunction, or a server failure, I respond quickly and work with urgency to get systems back online. My ability to provide fast, targeted solutions ensures that my clients experience minimal downtime and maximum productivity.

Another key component of my work is IT consulting and advisory services. I support businesses by providing guidance on critical IT decisions, helping them make smart investments in hardware, software, and network infrastructure. For example, I’ve facilitated Active Directory domain deployments since the early Windows 2000 Server days and these technologies enable secure user authentication, access control, and seamless user management. Beyond system implementation, I provide ongoing remote support at a flat hourly rate, offering clients consistent, accessible IT support. This consulting model allows organizations to have expert guidance without the expense of hiring a full-time IT department.

In addition to consulting and disaster recovery, I provide comprehensive IT support services. My areas of expertise include data recovery, ensuring that vital business data is restored after incidents such as accidental deletion or hardware failure. I also handle office system setup, configuring essential workstations and business software to optimize day-to-day operations. Malware cleanup and prevention are key parts of my service offerings, as I identify and remove threats while hardening client systems to prevent future infections. My role as a system administrator (sysadmin) allows me to provide daily oversight for many local servers, ensuring they operate smoothly, securely, and efficiently.

My goal is to offer businesses an affordable, outsourced IT solution that meets their needs without requiring them to maintain an internal IT department. By partnering with OnSite Computer Services, LLC, clients gain access to a wide range of professional IT services designed to support growth, increase efficiency, and prevent costly downtime. My passion for IT is rooted in a lifelong commitment to technological excellence, and I remain dedicated to providing fast, efficient, and effective support to every client I serve. Whether you’re facing a crisis or planning your next big IT project, I’m here to provide the guidance and technical expertise you need.
