Hire Me

Hello, and welcome!

This is the page where I tell you what I can do for you to make your life better than it was before you came to this page.

So what can I offer you, in brief?

First, I can give you back time that you thought was lost – here’s how.

Many, if not most of us, use computers and other technological gadgets to perform our everyday work.  It is important that the tools serve us, and not the other way around.  That is where I can help you.

I can evaluate your current work flow and optimize what you have, or suggest alternatives, to improve your effectiveness and allow you to spend more time doing things you would rather be doing – because we all have a limited amount of time.

Wouldn’t you rather be spending time with your loved ones or friends, rather than your Blackberry?

I am well versed in all major operating platforms, and I specialize in Windows, Ubuntu Linux, Mac OS X, and FreeBSD, for standalone applications, or in small office and home office environments.

I can help you choose the right tool for the job – and if that tool doesn’t exist, I can build it for you, with over ten years experience in software development, networking and hardware construction.  If you need something out of the ordinary, like a liquid cooled computer or a custom-coloured and laser engraved Macbook Pro that runs multiple operating systems, I can do that for you.

At the same time, I can evaluate the “analog” side of things, how you are working with the non-technological parts of your day – scheduling, for instance – and I can help you to avoid the pitfalls that plague so many.

To give you back time that you thought was lost.

And now, for something completely different!

I believe that one of the most important things we can do is to create value – physical value, if possible.

While my computer work is definitely a value-added operation, sometimes we just need to build something with our own hands.

I make shoes – specifically, custom-fit huarache sandals.

I can make you a pair of high-quality Latigo leather huaraches that will last you pretty much the rest of your life.

I have made my own, and I run in them, on pavement.  They are built to last, and they can be repaired, rather than being thrown away – because we throw away far too much these days.

From a tracing of your foot, I will make you some shoes that are a perfect fit for *you*.  Because you are a unique person, and your shoes should be too.

If you are in need of some truly unique productivity solutions, or just a great pair of sandals, please contact me at:

And we can take it from there.

Thanks for your time and consideration,

Brett
