Your photos, documents, and files are irreplaceable. I'll make sure they're safely protected — and when you get a new computer, I'll move everything over so nothing gets left behind.
These are two related but different things. Backup is about protecting what you have from loss. Transfer is about moving what you have to a new computer. I can help with one, the other, or both.
I'll set up an external hard drive to back up your important files, photos, and documents automatically — so you don't have to think about it again.
Cloud storage keeps your files safe offsite. I'll get you set up with a service that fits your situation and show you how it works — no jargon.
Moving to a new PC or laptop? I'll move your files, photos, documents, bookmarks, and email data so you can pick up right where you left off. This often pairs naturally with new computer setup.
Years of family photos and videos deserve extra care. I'll make sure your photo library is safely backed up in a way that's easy to access and actually protected.
Can't find anything on your computer? I'll help organize your files and folders into a structure you can actually navigate — often done alongside a backup or transfer job.
Accidentally deleted something important? Depending on what happened and how recently, there may be options. Reach out and I'll give you an honest assessment of what's possible.
⚠️ Hard drives don't last forever. If you've never backed up your computer, a drive failure could mean losing photos and files — and recovery isn't always possible.
The good news: setting up a solid backup takes less than an hour and gives you lasting peace of mind. Once it's done, backups happen automatically.
The most reliable approach keeps your data in more than one place — ideally both locally (an external drive) and offsite (cloud storage). I'll help you set that up simply and affordably, without overcomplicating it.

Things people often ask about backup and file transfer.
Pretty much anything on your computer — photos, videos, documents, spreadsheets, browser bookmarks, email data, and other important files. I'll make sure nothing important gets overlooked.
Yes. I can transfer your files, photos, documents, and browser data to a new computer so you can pick up right where you left off. This pairs naturally with new computer setup — I often handle both together.
They're related but distinct. A transfer moves your data to a new computer. A backup protects your data from loss — hard drive failure, ransomware, accidental deletion. Some people need one, some need both. I'll help you figure out what actually makes sense for your situation.
Cloud backup setup can often be handled remotely. For backup to a physical external drive, an in-home visit is typically needed — but once it's set up, backups run on their own automatically.
It depends on what happened and how recently. Recovery isn't always possible, but in some cases there are options. Reach out and I'll give you an honest read on what might be recoverable — and what to expect. This is one of the main reasons getting a backup in place before a problem is so much better than hoping for recovery after.
Setting up a solid backup takes less than an hour and gives you real peace of mind. Call, text, or message to get it done.
