Phinney Ridge · Greenwood · North Seattle

A neighbor
who does tech.

I'm a senior IT engineer based right here in Phinney Ridge. I help small businesses around the neighborhood with the technology side of things — the everyday support, the security and backups, the Microsoft 365 headaches, and practical AI that actually saves you time. Plain English, no lock-in, and I can stop by in person.

What I Help With

The tech side, handled.

Whether you're a shop, a practice, a studio, or a one-person operation — here's where I take the technology off your plate.

🛠

Everyday IT & Support

Your on-call tech person without a full-time hire: computers, Wi-Fi, printers, phones, new-hire setup, and "why won't this work" — sorted quickly, in person when it helps.

  • Fractional IT for 1–50 person businesses
  • Device & account setup and cleanup
  • Local — I can come to you

🤖

Practical AI

AI that plugs into what you already use — email, scheduling, invoicing, and a website chatbot that captures leads after hours. Real time saved, nothing sent without your say-so.

  • Inbox triage & drafted replies
  • Booking, reminders & follow-ups
  • After-hours lead capture

🔒

Security & Backups

The stuff that saves you on a bad day: real backups, secure email and logins, and a lock-down of the accounts that matter — before something goes wrong, not after.

  • Nightly backups you can restore
  • Microsoft 365 / Google security
  • Phishing & account protection

Email, Microsoft 365 & Setup

Get your business email, shared files, and calendars working the way they should — set up cleanly, migrated without losing anything, and explained so your team can run it.

  • Microsoft 365 & Google Workspace
  • Email migrations & shared drives
  • New business? Start it off right
