About Drake

I’ve been working with technology for over three decades, starting back when dial-up internet was cutting edge. Over the years, I’ve seen it all—from the early days of home computing to today’s smart devices and always-connected world. My background includes system administration, networking, and years of hands-on experience keeping systems running smoothly in both homes and office.

But more than just fixing things, I enjoy helping people feel more comfortable with the technology in their lives. I know not everyone speaks "tech," so I focus on making things clear, calm, and approachable. Whether you're brand new to computers or just tired of things not working the way they should, I'm here with the patience and know-how to help

Home Installs & Upgrades

At Tech With Drake, I understand that buying or upgrading a computer can be a daunting task. With my decades of computer experience and enthusiasm for technology, I'm here to guide you through every step of the process, including:

• Buying a new computer
• Installing and upgrading hardware
• Installing and upgrading software
• Upgrading operating system
• Connecting new devices
• Transfering data and software

When it’s time for a new computer, choosing the right one can make all the difference. I regularly help people find and set up the best PC or Mac for their needs, with the goal always to recommend options that offer the right balance of performance, reliability, and value.

I also assist with installing software, setting up printers and other peripherals, and making sure everything works together seamlessly. If you’re moving to a new computer, I can help with data transfers and software reinstalls. For home offices, I set up monitors, docking stations, webcams, and other essential gear.

Upgrading hardware doesn’t have to be overwhelming. I’ve installed everything from memory and SSDs to new graphics cards and Wi-Fi adapters, always with a focus on maximizing performance and extending the useful life of your system. Many times, a simple upgrade—like adding more RAM or replacing an old hard drive with a solid-state drive—can make a computer feel brand new again, speeding up startup times and making everyday tasks smoother.

No matter what you’re installing or upgrading, I’ll walk you through the options, explain what to expect, and handle the technical details so you don’t have to worry. My goal is to make the process smooth and straightforward, ensuring your devices are ready to meet your needs.
