Small businesses don't have time for IT problems — and they shouldn't have to. I help small business owners offload the complexity of their IT infrastructure so they can focus on running their business, not troubleshooting it.
With over 10 years of hands-on experience, I provide end-to-end IT support across cloud, networking, and systems administration — from a single urgent fix to ongoing managed support.
Cloud Migration & M365 Administration
I handle complete Google Workspace to Microsoft 365 migrations (and vice versa) — mailboxes, calendars, contacts, and shared drives — with zero data loss and minimal disruption to your team. Post-migration, I can stay on to manage your M365 tenant, user accounts, licensing, and security policies so everything keeps running smoothly.
Network Setup & Security
I design and deploy reliable business networks using UniFi, configure secure remote access via WireGuard/Headscale VPN, and set up enterprise Wi-Fi — built to handle real workloads without dropping out. Whether you're moving offices or setting up from scratch, I get it done right the first time.
Cloud Infrastructure (Azure / AWS)
From provisioning virtual machines and managing cloud storage to configuring networking and databases, I keep your cloud environment lean, secure, and cost-efficient. I've deployed and maintained infrastructure for businesses across manufacturing, real estate, and professional services.
IT Support & Helpdesk
I provide dependable remote and onsite support across Windows, macOS, and Linux — using RMM tools and ticketing systems like Freshdesk to resolve issues fast and keep your team productive. Think of me as your on-call IT department without the overhead of a full-time hire.
Credentials & Background
Google IT Support Professional Certificate | Diploma in Information Technology
Fluent in English, Hindi, Gujarati, and Swahili — great for diverse or globally distributed teams.
Based in Calgary, MST — available for both one-time projects and long-term contracts.
If your business needs reliable IT that just works, let's connect.

I fix operations that are held together with spreadsheets, Teams/Slack, and hope.

/ Drove a 14% year-over-year increase in team B2B partner booking confidence, reflecting a leadership style built on clear communication and operational excellence.
/ Salesforce approval workflow: cut contract cycle from 3 days to a few hours.
/ Led operations supporting $95M+ USD in annual B2B bookings across a 35-person remote team.
