Brian has a wide range of experience from application development to network and server infrastructure design. He is skilled in multiple operating systems, including all versions of Windows, multiple versions of Unix and Linux, and even Mac OS X. He not only understands Information Technology, but is an expert in its application. His Integrity and Customer Focus means he won't waste your time with an expensive solution that you don't need.
