Introduction

20 years experience. You won't find many people that can find the problem quicker than I can and with the know how to resolve it. I can install, wire, configure just about anything IT related. I'm honest and low on price comparitively since my value structure comes from living all my life in the Midwest. Just recently moved to CT and would love some extra opportunities. I work full time managing an IT department for a large manufacturing company, so hours can be limited, but I'm always willing to work with you on schedule. To be honest, I love being the hero. Managing IT takes you out of the hero role, and this is an element I miss and would love to incorporate into the work I can offer you. PHOTOGRAPHY I'm also a professional wedding photographer. I excel in shooting and lighting techniques. Website is merakiphotoinc.com Both of my main hobbies are also my full time job, what more could I ask for?

Don’t even think about gettin someone else to fix whatever your computer needs, choose Tim. This man is simply amazing when it comes to IT and getting your computer fixed quick and right. Friendly, diligent, knowledgeable, and fast. Money spent per yield toward solution is a great bargain. My laptop gave me a non-bootable error message; it was a loose drive which he found and fixed in 10 minutes. At the same time I brought a custom trading computer badly infested with malware/spyware, and it completely non functional. Tim cleaned it up back to new in under an hour. I am in awe of this good man. This is a completely honest and unsolicited testimonial. Choose him, for this is your lucky day. Wilson Horne

Tim was great. He setup everything as I needed and wanted it. I will use him for all of my computer needs from now on. After posting that I needed a tech to help me I had a quick response from Tim and he was soon in my place fixing my old computer and setting up a new one as I wanted it, and on a Saturday to boot. Tim spent 4+ hours here and was a great find. He even helped me put together a computer chair I ordered on Amazon lol. If you need a IT guy to help you out I suggest you contact Tim.

Tim is a great guy. Not only an IT wizard, he’s personable, patient, and reliable. He set up all my work-required equipment. Since I first needed his assistance, I’ve reached out again as I accepted a position at another company and now need Tim to set up this work equipment. Mary-Ellen C./Hebron, CT

This was the second significant problem Tim solved solved for me. Took him all of 5 minutes if that to solve it. Hit him with a number of other technical concerns and glitches that had been cursing me for many months. That curse is lifted. The man is so nice and professional, and gifted to boot.

You need to use Tim. You will be happy..... Got me back to where I felt secure in what I needed done. In other words, I didn't feel like an idiot...
