As a former educator and international school administrator in China turned nonprofit IT consultant, I built my first career on bridging gaps—helping diverse teams collaborate, simplifying complex processes, and navigating fluid, fast-paced environments.
Today, I bring that same communicative rigor and patience to technology. Backed by an MS in Information Security and a deep, hands-on passion for systems architecture, I act as a true strategic partner for small businesses and nonprofits. No jargon, no vendor bloat—just clear advice and technology that works.
The Communication Advantage: Years spent teaching and managing cross-cultural organizations mean I explain why something needs fixing in plain, zero-jargon English.
Problem-Solving Curiosity: From enterprise cloud infrastructure to tinkering with legacy hardware, I bring a lifelong, hands-on obsession with how systems actually work under the hood.
Pragmatic Leadership: Having managed real organizations scaling up rapidly, and later finding themselves on tight operational budgets, I focus on cost-efficient, resilient solutions rather than pushing expensive tech trends.
