IT consultant and technology advisor in Reno, Nevada
Many growing Reno businesses outgrow the IT setup they started with. I help small Reno and Sparks companies work out what they need, choose the right IT provider, and keep that provider accountable.
Who I work with in Reno
Reno is a bigger, faster market than the capital: more companies arriving, more offices opening a second location, more teams that have outgrown the setup a friend built. The common thread is 10 to 100 staff and no full-time IT person.
- Professional offices and growing firms: legal, accounting, insurance, real estate, engineering
- Dental and medical practices, often with more than one location
- Contractors and trades keeping pace with construction across the Truckee Meadows
- Nonprofits serving Washoe County
When growth outpaces your IT
A second location, a jump in headcount, a client asking security questions, an IT bill that keeps climbing. These are the moments a plan pays for itself, and the moments a business most often signs the wrong IT contract.
Services Reno businesses ask for
- The $1,500 technology assessment and roadmap: the usual starting point, so the advice is grounded in facts.
- IT provider selection: comparing managed IT providers side by side, and getting the promises in the contract.
- Fractional IT director: vendor management, quarterly reviews of your Google Workspace or Microsoft 365 setup, and budget planning.
- AI strategy and safe use: where AI fits, a plain AI use policy, staff training and tools with the right privacy terms.
- AI pilots to production: private AI on your own data, built, security reviewed and handed to your IT provider to run.
AI consultant in Reno
Growing Reno and Sparks companies feel the pressure to do something with AI, often before anyone has set rules for the tools staff already use. I help you decide where AI fits, write a plain AI use policy, train your people and set rules for what client data may go into AI tools, then build a private AI pilot on your own documents that your IT provider runs. AI for small businesses walks through the whole path, from first questions to production.
Working alongside Reno managed service providers
Reno has established managed service providers, and I am not one of them. There is no help desk here and no hands-on work. What there is: an independent assessment, a clear plan, help choosing the right provider, and someone on your side checking that the work gets done.
Reno questions
Do you cover Sparks and South Reno?
Yes. Reno, Sparks and the surrounding Washoe County business areas are all in reach for in-person meetings, about half an hour from my Carson City base.
We are growing fast and our IT has not kept up. Where do we start?
With the assessment. One week, one fixed price, and a roadmap that separates what is urgent from what can wait until the next hire or lease.
We have a managed service provider in Reno already.
Keep them. I give you an independent view of how things stand, a plan they can work from, and someone checking that it gets done. Reno has good providers, and this works best with them, not around them.
Can we meet in person or is it all remote?
Either. Kickoffs, the assessment walkthrough and provider interviews work well at your office. The rest is remote.
