Background

I spent over 15 years in enterprise IT, working at companies like Presidio and Sentinel Technologies. I designed networks, implemented security solutions, and managed infrastructure for organizations ranging from mid-market companies to large enterprises.

That experience taught me what good IT looks like—and what it takes to build and maintain it. It also showed me the gap between what large companies have access to and what small businesses typically get.

I started Third Level IT to bridge that gap. Small businesses deserve the same quality infrastructure, the same security-first approach, and the same level of expertise. They just need it delivered in a way that makes sense for their size and budget.
