About Stephen
Welcome to Un1teee!!!
I am delighted that you have landed here to check me out. I hope that as you navigate our pages, you will find the information you’re looking for.
As for me, I have always been in the technology world. From my earliest memories of playing with an Apple II to taking computers apart, I’ve always been fascinated by technology and gadgets (the wires and gadgets are relegated to my man cave). It’s kind of like my wife’s fascination with shoes and handbags. We have decided that she can continue with her fascination, and I with mine – which is one of the many reasons we have been happily married for 30+ years.
My formal education includes a B.S. in Computer Science from the University of Michigan, and an MBA from Pepperdine. I have worked in various industries including accounting, healthcare, industrial gases, legal, design, entertainment, and education. I continue to learn from my clients’ and I truly enjoy designing solutions to suit my clients’ specific needs.
While there are many I.T. companies out there (both good and bad), we choose to not just provide you with excellent technology support, but also take a holistic view of your business, to partner with you to develop processes and workflows to help your business leverage your investment in technology to be more productive, secure and happy.
Since you have read this far (thank you), here are 2 analogies that may help you choose (or disqualify) Un1teee. I.T. is considered by many to be a necessary evil (expense). IF I.T. isn’t a strategic and mission critical capability for you, we may not be the right fit for you (but if you aspire to turn I.T. into a strategic advantage, keep reading).
1. Think of a house cleaning service. This service keeps your house clean, but does nothing to really improve the house. We would be the equivelant of the interior designer – take your wishes to make the house look and function better.
2. Another example is a Formula 1 race car. The pit crew provides the tire changes and keeps the car in the race. We would be the equivalent of the race engineer that takes driver (your) feedback to tune the car and make it go even faster.
I hope this helps you understand how we take a different approach to providing you with I.T. support. Wishing you all the best!
My Family Time
When I’m not sitting at my command central (I have 5, yes 5 monitors), you can find me hanging out with my family (my adult children enjoy spending time with Sepi and I), traveling, playing pickleball, racquetball, ping pong or racing cars (autocross) with my kids.
I hope to have the opportunity to connect with you, answer your questions and see if our services fit your needs. I pride myself in my ability to provide I.T. peace of mind based on your specific needs/concerns. Most of the time, I.T. is not front of mind until something goes wrong (even though it has silently become mission critical for all as Covid has proven).

50-rules for life
We see similar rules like this published on social media. Since you are learning about me (and how we choose to run our business), I thought this selection (not in order) would be nice to show you what resonates with me.
