About this pro

How you incorporate - or choose to exclude - digital technology in your daily life heavily determines your level of productivity, both personally and professionally. Just like your relationship with your physical body and mind, your relationship to technology is one that requires management and discipline. In many cases, the best approach is one of simplification, with a focus on tighter organization and management of fewer tools, not more stuff to learn or buy. With an unhealthy relationship to technology, your inbox is a source of constant dread and frustration. You have learned to ignore or "just delete" constant annoyances like error message windows and unwanted email. You spend more time trying to navigate and locate things on your home computer than you do getting actual tasks completed. You have many software applications installed on your PC that you have never, ever used, and many of them you don't even know what they are meant to do. You have spent over $2,000 on digital technology in the past 12-18 months but could not easily identify any return on that investment, let alone recoup. *** If your home computer or laptop does not actively support and enhance your life in at least five different ways, your investment is being wasted.*** What I love most about this job is sharing in the joy and satisfaction my clients express when we eliminate or resolve an ongoing source of frustration or inefficiency within their digital realm.

I am a small business owner and needed help with creating estimates for potential clients, Chris suggested using Excel and word and was Excellant at showing me how to use both, he also was very patient and understanding as I had little experience with either. I would highly recommend working with Chris

Chris set-up my printer to my new mac computer. He downloaded all the proper software and showed me how to scan& email documents. When I bought the printer I did not know I had to pay for a landline to get the wifi fax to work. Chris showed me a software company that I can pay a smaller fee and send faxes from home :) He was very friendly and got the job done. I highly recommend his service!

I am an advisor to an executive in a very busy government office. I worked with Chris for several weeks on a one to one basis. He is extremely knowledgeable and professional. He provided me with tools and tips to help managing my overflowing inbox, increase my productivity and gain some peace of mind. He knows all of the new programs like Evernote, Dropbox, helped me use my new Ipad, gave me tips on how to get more out of Outlook and Word, and improve my general work flow. I highly recommend his services!

Chris was quick to grasp my situation and intentions, and insightful regarding directions to pursue. He was very helpful, and I'm happy to now have him as a consulting resource.

FAQs

What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
This is my side gig. Full time I work for world-class advertising agencies and Fortune 100 clients like Google, Xbox, Sony and Viacom. This means I'm neck-deep in the most cutting-edge technologies on a daily basis, with massive budgets to allow for experimentation with and disruption of common approaches.
