I have been building computers as long as I can remember. I first learned in junior high how to program Apple and Macintosh computers. In high school I would tear apart computers just to see how they worked. After starting college I bought my first PC, and before long I was helping other students in the dorm with their computers. After that I just kept building computers and helping others with their computers.
In 1998, I moved to Nashville, Tennessee to work for Warner Brothers as a music sales representative. I was the only computer-literate person in the office, so I was really able to hone my skills in Microsoft Office - especially in Outlook and Excel. A year later, Dell Computers opened a new facility in Nashville for their Home and Small Office Technical Support Division.?Of the initial 9000 applicants, I was one of only 30 hired. While at Dell, I spent five weeks in training, three months in technical support call center, was made the Lead of my team and was asked to handle the more challenging clients. I was also asked to train newly-hired employees to work in the call-center.
I In July of 2000, I moved back to the Northwest. Shortly after, I started working at Nike World Headquarters doing desktop support. After working there for four years, I gained additional experience in large office networks, servers, network printers, PDA's, and various types of software. I was also able to familiarize myself with products like Adobe (Photoshop, Illustrator, and Distiller), SAP, Remedy, Siebel, and all Microsoft Products, (Office, ActiveSync, Window 2000 and XP). Shortly after starting at Nike, I started Your Computer Guy. It started out as a way to help Nike employees at home with their personal computers. Eventually I?started doing small business setups for local companies such as Mosaic Financial and Design Northwest.
Your Computer Guy's philosophy is simple. I want to provide the best possible computer service and support available, whether you are a small one-computer business working out of your home or a large office with 100 computers in a warehouse downtown. From a small wireless network in your home to a complex 500-user network with a server or two, no job is too big and no task is too small for Your Computer Guy.
