Read some client feedback:
"As Director of the organization Southern Vermonters for a Fair Economy and Environmental Protection, I've been working with Derek for the past 9 months, and he's just what the doctor ordered for this computer-challenged (and time-limited) patient. His house calls last for 1 to 2 hours, and his patient, non-judgmental style of helping me grasp the simple as well as the complex language of computerese has been a welcome change from some other experiences I've had in the past.

He designed us a great website, and has maintained and upgraded it constantly and promptly. He's helped clean up our membership, mailmerge, and email action alert databases, and got them working more efficiently and effectively.

I consider his rate of $20/hour very reasonable. Most of all, it's just been a pleasure to have a 'tutor and trouble-shooter' around regularly who helps me navigate computerland without getting tied up in frustrated knots of lost time trying to figure things out myself on these 'user-friendly' programs.

Feel free to contact me for more details about what Derek has to offer. John Berkowitz, 387-5127 svfeep@sover.net"
