    • on-hand Tech Savvy Admin Assistance

  • In my 50s, I understand the challenges people face with technology. My love for helping people took root when I unexpectedly found the intrinsic rewards of assisting an elderly woman in my apartment building in the Village in NYC.

    As a native New Yorker, I left a 20-year corporate career during COVID to pursue my passion for technology and helping people. My mission is to make technology stress-free, prioritize personalized solutions with a human touch, and create a positive impact through my services.

    As soon on Google -

    “I am not a technical novice, but at 90 years I sometimes fall behind. I found Bonnie via another resident in my building who also needed some computer help. During my more active years I worked with a wide variety of technical experts, having been somewhat of one myself. Thus I am an able judge of technical competence and skill. Bonnie is in the category of one of the most able of information technologists. She reminds me of the very early days of computers when it was the women English majors who led the way bringing computer into wide-spread use by ordinary people. Bonnie is not only knowledgeable in all aspects of personal computers, but she has the ability to comfortably transmit this knowledge to beginners and unskilled users. She is patient, understanding and communicative. And I might add, considering the economy today and what other professionals charge, her charges are quite reasonable.” -Alvin, 91

    “Bonnie really knows her stuff and she certainly is a tech wizard. I am 72 and not very tech savvy. She was both patient and very helpful. Bonnie can be trusted to help you tech-wise.” -Karl
