15+ Years in Enterprise IT Ubiquiti Expertise Fully Remote Vendor-Neutral

The Problem

Most networks just grew. Few were designed.

A router from the ISP, a switch someone added, Wi-Fi that drops in the back office, and no one quite sure what’s plugged in where. It works, until it doesn’t.

I help you understand what you have, where the risks are, and how to build a foundation that holds up, including for whatever comes next, like AI.

Services

Clear answers, fixed prices.

AI Readiness Assessment

$1,500

AI adds new risks to your network and your data. Before you adopt it, make sure you’re ready.

A clear-eyed look at whether your business is ready for AI, and what to do about it.

  • Expectations

    What AI can realistically do for you, what it costs, and where it won’t help.

  • Security

    Data sensitivity, access controls, and the risk of “shadow AI” tools already in use.

  • Purpose

    Prioritized use cases tied to real business problems, or an honest “not yet.”

You get: a written readiness report with findings and recommendations, plus a starter AI Acceptable Use Policy you can adopt right away.

My Own Network

The standard I hold myself to

This is the network I run at home: enterprise-grade Ubiquiti, structured cabling, battery backup. Most businesses don’t need a rack. But they deserve advice from someone who builds things to last.
