I'm friendly to work with and communicate well. I'm in the Pacific Northwest (PNW), on West Coast time. I don't talk down to you. I replace technical words with less technical ones you'll know, and I use analogies to help you understand the technical ideas. I love to make processes and systems more efficient and beautiful. I have been in technology for over 20 years; I started out as a programmer but have managed large teams and worn many hats. I enjoy what I do a great deal!

I love to use technology to help people. I love the expressions of gratitude from people, for what I consider easy but isn't easy for everyone! If you are in the category where technology is really frustrating, you are the person I want to help. I'm inspired when I see a graphic design or image that is beautiful and communicates an idea. I'm inspired when I see a well-made website or app. I like to make connections with people and be there for people when they have problems again. When my skills are lacking, I love to have a good recommendation for you - skills like UX/UI, Backend programming, Professional headshots, Brand Identity people. I've been in the business a long time and have worked with so many good people.

You found my weak spot! It's true, I don't love all tech. I don't work on printers, phones, operating systems, .NET or windows. I have tried all of these things, and they are just not my cup of tea.

Yes! Until I start making my own videos, I'll point you at some other people!! I really like this one by Semrush (made in 2025) that tell you about the basics: Wanna skip around?
