Our Team

Over the years, Ted has been a pioneer in exploring and implementing new technologies in business environments. In the early 1990s, he was instrumental in the implementation of Linux, the Internet, and Virtual Private Networks (VPNs) in a variety of corporate settings, long before they were widely in use. More recently, he has worked extensively in the areas of Virtualization and Cloud Computing. Ted continues to be intrigued by the possible applications of new technologies.

Ted is also passionate about customer service, courtesy, and the need for professionalism in IT. He believes that IT specialists should demonstrate the same level of commitment and professionalism as lawyers and accountants, and he insists that every member of the Connectability team adhere to those principles.
