About this site and my services
This website is a work in progress, which will hopefully be fully up and running as a platform soon. This will allow me to offer my IT experience and expertise to business owners concerned about security of their files, or those who want the peace of mind of knowing they have someone they can call when the gremlins come for their technical systems.
below, are some of the services I plan to offer.
Consulting
Don't know what you need? No problem!
I have been steeped in the world of tech for the past few years and have only just now come up for air to talk with other humans- I can personally offer services for small and medium sized businesses (read 2-30 -ish employees) and for situations where my offered services are overkill or under-powered, I will point you towards a company, person, or service, that will serve you better than I can. I have been giving out IT advice to friends and family for years, and have only now realized how valuable that advice can be- talking with me is certainly faster, easier, and more accurate, than chatting with a soulless AI or browsing endless reddit posts in search of an answer to your questions.
Teaching and Tutoring.
I am still developing curriculum, but I can teach classes for young teens and adults of up to 6 students on the following topics. Quality of education will be much higher for one on one tutoring of course.
- Linux desktop and server environments
- Bash scripting
- Arduino and microcontroller programming
- Soldering
- low voltage wiring and automation
- Raspberry pi and small ARM SBCs
- 3d modeling for animation, 3d printing, and assorted CAD.
- Mikrotik and Cisco networking principles in a linux environment
- Proxmox as a clustered hypervisor
- PC desktop construction and repair
- Enterprise hardware selection
- OS install for ARM and x86 systems
- Cellular biology and ecology at a high school level
- and more!
System acquisition installation and maintenance
Once you have discussed your options and are confident with a plan for IT infrastructure for your business moving forward, I may be able to acquire and install the enterprise grade networking and server hardware your business needs to run smoothly, and depending on your risks, needs, and required timelines, I may be able to do so at below market prices. I will offer remote and in-person retainer and maintenance services for a monthly fee on any system I personally install or set up, at varying rates depending on your business needs. This service does not require that I am the person to acquire the hardware for your business.
Employee Training.
New system I installed stressing you out? I offer employee training for any system I have personally installed or am familiar with. Maximum class batch size depends on your company culture and the required depth of knowledge for the new system, for some more in depth systems, I may recommend only hiring me to train one or two employees, and having them disseminate that knowledge to others at a later date.
NOTE: This excludes most Microsoft products and services! I am not a standard IT generalist- I have specialized in self hosted Linux systems and medium scale computer networking infrastructure for maximum self-dependency, to reduce reliance on 3rd party systems and services that I cannot fix with my own two hands- I will recommend those 3rd party services to you if they are truly what you need, but I cannot guarantee that I will be able to teach you to use them.
Hippa Compliance and Secure file storage and access.
Does your business industry have legal requirements for data access and storage? No problem!
The services i personally offer can cover many of these cases, and I can recommend other services for those cases and situations that I cannot personally build systems for, to get you pointed in the right direction for you and your business.
