More Than IT – Our Story
Our History
Tech doesn’t have to be confusing—but most of the time, it is.
That’s where Technology-Made-Simple comes in.
Before I ever touched a server rack or wrote a line of code, I spent eight years in the Hotel & Restaurant Management industry, where the customer always came first. That experience instilled in me the value of hard work, clear communication, and—most importantly—being there when people need you.
When I made the move into IT, I brought that same mindset with me: a grit-fueled determination to learn, grow, and help. I worked my way up through perseverance and a real passion for solving problems.
People usually don’t call IT because things are going great—they call because something’s gone wrong. I’ve found real satisfaction in being the one who can help fix the issue and ease the frustration.
That’s why I founded Technology-Made-Simple under NK Solutions, LLC.
Our mission is exactly what the name says: make technology simple. Be the team that actually picks up the phone.
The one that shows up, talks like real people, and makes IT feel a little less overwhelming.
We believe in calm, clear, and concise human interactions—and in being the kind of partner you can count on when it matters most.
We're more than just IT support.
We’re Technology-Made-Simple.
Our Mission
At Technology-Made-Simple, our mission is to make technology accessible, dependable, and genuinely helpful for the people who rely on it every day.
We exist to put the customer first—not just in words, but in action. That means picking up the phone when you call, responding quickly when you need us, and delivering solutions that are practical, clear, and tailored to your business.
Our goal is to eliminate the confusion and frustration so often tied to IT. We believe technology should be an enabler—not a barrier—and we’re here to guide you through it with honesty, clarity, and a personal touch.
We don’t just fix issues. We build relationships, earn trust, and create lasting impact.
Technology-Made-Simple. It's not just our name—it's our promise.
