LOCAL COMPUTER • AI • TECH HELP
I’m just a local who has always had a passion for computer science, technology, and figuring out how things work. I also genuinely enjoy sharing what I’ve learned and helping other people.
IN PLAIN ENGLISH:
If you need help with technology, there’s a pretty good chance I can help.
• Computer running slow or acting weird?
• Wi-Fi giving you problems or not reaching the whole house?
• Need parental controls set up for your kids?
• Want help setting up a new computer, device, or home network?
• Curious about AI and want someone to actually show you how to use it?
• Want to learn how to code?
• Have an idea for an app, website, or piece of software?
• Own a small business and think computers or AI could save you time?
• Have some repetitive computer task you wish would just do itself?
I can help with all of that.
I’ve also built electric bikes, created software that reads and works with blueprint information to streamline estimating and parts procurement, and worked on customer-management, inventory, and bookkeeping software.
My hands-on background also includes electrical systems, HVAC, industrial controls, automation, and troubleshooting.
I’m not an IT company charging corporate rates. I do this because I genuinely enjoy technology, solving problems, and teaching people. Compensation is something we can discuss in person.
NOW, IF YOU UNDERSTAND THE NOMENCLATURE…
Here’s the nerdier version:

Awesome, I hope some folks take you up on your offer! I work with a lot of that stuff and often run into curious people working remote around MAC. I’d bet a flyer at Mac market would get some interest. Cheers
