Technology Keeps Changing. Doing Right by Clients Doesn't.
Network infrastructure, AWS and Azure cloud, and AI-Directed Software Engineering for individuals and small businesses — from a partner who has built and run this kind of technology for an entire career. Plain English, honest answers, and work scoped to your problem, never to the invoice.
What I Do
The unglamorous, essential work of keeping small businesses running — plus the newer stuff, done carefully.
Not Sure What You Need? Start with a Call →Managed IT & Network Infrastructure
Design, monitoring, and upkeep of the network your business runs on, built on proven SMB and enterprise platforms from Cisco, Meraki, and Peplink. Fewer surprises, faster fixes.
Ways to Engage →AWS Cloud Services
AWS environments sized to your business, not someone else’s — from migration and core infrastructure to serverless architectures, with backup and cost control throughout.
Ways to Engage →Azure Cloud Services
Microsoft-centered shops covered too: Azure setup, Microsoft 365 integration, identity and device management, and ongoing administration.
Ways to Engage →AI-Directed Software Engineering
Custom applications, secure by design and standards-compliant, built with AI-directed engineering guided by a career of engineering discipline. Professional results on a small-business budget. Disciplined engineering, not vibe coding.
Modules, Pricing & How It Works →IT Consulting & Advisory
A second opinion, a roadmap, or a steady hand. Honest advice from a full career in the field.
A Career Built on This Work — and It Still Matters to Me
My career began at the dawn of the PC era, with the TRS-80 and the IBM PC, and grew alongside the industry itself: Novell networking in the 1980s, an ISP I founded in the mid-1990s and operated until 2012, and the web hosting and data center operations that grew with it.
Since then, I have served as an IT contractor in various roles for Fortune 500 companies, including Liberty Mutual, Wachovia, and A.G. Edwards, and managed network and server operations for a global software company and a pharmaceutical firm. Today, the work is AWS, Azure, and AI-Directed Software Engineering.
What has not changed in all that time: businesses need technology that works, from someone who tells them the truth about it. NET1Plus is deliberately small. You work with me, not an account manager. I take on the clients I can serve well, and I stay with them.
Fun fact: our domain, net1plus.com, has been registered since October 1995 — before google.com or facebook.com existed.
You Don't Need to Be Technical. You Need a Partner You Can Trust.
Some of the best app ideas come from people who know a business, a trade, or simply a problem from daily life better than anyone — but not the technology — and who hesitate to share the idea for fear of losing it. That caution is wise. I work under NDA from the first conversation, explain what building your app actually takes in plain language, and either guide you through the process or build it with you. Your idea stays yours, at every step.
Start With a Confidential ConversationHow an Engagement Works
Fair, Reasonable, and in Writing
Every engagement starts with a clear scope and a clear price. No lock-in contracts, no surprise line items, and no padding. If a two-hundred-dollar fix solves your problem, I won't sell you a two-thousand-dollar project.
Let's Talk. It Costs Nothing to Ask.
Tell me a little about yourself and what you need, and I will get back to you within one business day. A 30-minute call, plain English, no obligation. Worst case, you leave with a better idea of what you need.
Everything you share here is held in confidence.
I will be in touch within one business day.
