24/7 Tech Support
    For Seniors.

    The story of how a family tech support session turned into a service for everyone's family.

    From the East Coast to the West Coast

    Tommy was born in Savannah, Georgia in 1987, graduated from Hilton Head High School in 2005, and went on to earn his degree from Cal State East Bay. The move out west opened the door to a career he never expected.

    After college, he became a gymnastics, ninja warrior, and trampoline coach for Stanford University. Coaching is where he learned the patience and step by step instruction that lives at the heart of TechMaid today.

    Coming Home to Charleston

    Tommy moved back to Charleston two weeks before COVID shut the world down. Suddenly everyone he loved was relying on technology to stay connected, and the gap between the people building it and the people using it had never felt wider.

    Why TechMaid was Created

    TechMaid started as a tool for Tommy's own family. Every family gathering turned into a tech support session, which he never minded, but he wanted something that would be available to his family 24/7 whenever they needed help.

    Technology changes so fast that it is nearly impossible for his grandpa to keep up. He deserves a friendly, patient guide that never sighs, never rushes him, and is just one tap away. That is what TechMaid is meant to be for every family.

    Life Outside of TechMaid

    In his spare time Tommy enjoys flipping around, sports, the beach, traveling, cooking, hiking, and coaching. If it gets him outside or moving, he is in.

    He also shares his home with two cats: Sunshine, his blonde adventurer, and Snorelax, the king.
