We all had to start somewhere, here is the story of how Nelson Elite began!
As long as I can remember, computers have always interested me. I received my first personal computer, an Apple IIc., and by the end of the day I had dismantled it, put it back together, and managed to lock my parents out of the computer. An hour after that I was reinstalling the operating system, one floppy at a time. From that moment on, I was hooked on computers. I then moved on to teaching myself DOS and Windows 3.1. I have always been considered the "resident geek" of my family and friends.
In junior high, it dawned on me that: not only did I have talents with these computers, but I began to believe that I might have a future in them. So I began doing basic break/fix and computer setup/training for friends and neighbors. What began as a hobby turned into an obsession. In high school, as high-speed broadband and 3D graphics cards were becoming mainstream, peoples’ demands for my services continued, and I began to learn more about Operating Systems, Networks, Wireless and Server configurations.
"IT is a requirement for most businesses these days, but that doesn't mean that you have to have the latest and greatest hardware, you simply need a system that works for you, not against you."
I have continued to learn and understand specific types of software, from Quickbooks and Adobe Creative Suite software, to becoming Certified in over 8 Microsoft Operating Systems and Software Suites. I do my best to stay on the cutting edge of Microsoft’s software by maintaining Certifications and attending Classroom Trainings and Technology Conferences. I also have gone back to my original roots, as I am currently working on acquiring certifications in Mac OSX.
Fast forward to today and I have been in business for 4 years. I have many satisfied clients that have not only been given great customer service and support, but have also been taught that their computers are not something to be scared of. My clients understand how their computers work, what their limitations are, and what the future holds. My clients understand that Information Technology can make your business run more efficiently, save money, and let you get back to what you do best - provide your customers with a great product/service. I stand by my service and am proud to serve my clients with their IT needs.
So at this point you may be asking: why politics? Well I will tell you. I got involved with a local city race in Addison, TX by doing what I do best - using technology to demonstrate that it could be done. With just a few hours of my time and creativity, we had left a mark on our little town. That got me excited about what else I could do. 4 years and a few campaigns later, I have tailored Social Media, Website and Advertising campaigns for Public Figures. So not only do I offer IT services but I am proud to begin offering Political Consulting, Management and other services to those that are interested. I am also excited to unveil my new political canvassing application shortly. (More on that soon!) I hope that explains the why. Contact me for the How.
