Everyday technology, together
Help with the things
that matter to you.
You don’t need to know the right technical words. Just tell me what you’d like to do, or what isn’t working. We’ll start there.
Keep your people close
Make a FaceTime call, share a favorite photo, or get comfortable with texts and email. Stay in touch in ways that work for you.
Feel safer online
Learn to spot suspicious messages, organize passwords, and review privacy settings. Set up emergency contacts and Apple Watch safety features.
Doctor’s apps & video visits
Get help signing in, finding lab results, requesting prescription refills, and preparing your device for video appointments.
Look after photos & files
Understand iCloud storage, set up backups, and keep your photos and contacts together. Get help with account access, too.
Make things easier to use
Make text larger, adjust your screen, try voice dictation, or connect hearing aids. Small changes can make a big difference.

A people person.
Who also loves
helping with tech.
I’ve spent years working alongside older adults in their homes, offering practical help and companionship. Again and again, I saw how a confusing device could get in the way of an ordinary day.
I started CalmTech Support to bring a little patience to those moments. I’ll sit with you, explain each step, and give you time to try it yourself. And I’ll leave you with notes you can turn to after I go.
A little more about me“My goal is simple: to make technology feel less frustrating, more approachable, and easier to use in everyday life.”
