About The Digitante

The DigitanteI’ve had an interest in technology for about 10 years. I’ve always been the go-to-guy for my friends and family when they have needs related to technology and electronics. I decided to combine my passion for instructing and knowledge sharing with my love for technology and The Digitante was born.

I would be more than happy to sit down with you and discuss how you can take control of your technology. In the mean time, Meet The Digitante!

The weather around these parts has been a mess lately: three snowstorms yielding 6″ or more each in the last month. It has wreaked havoc on our street since we are a low-traffic, one way street, so the city never plows it. Fortunately, we’ve been able to get out and about.
