Feel free to tell us anything else….?
Well I’ve been called the Energizer Bunny, alot! I’m very devoted to everything I do. My kids are a priority to me, but besides being a mom, I love my profession and helping my clients through sometimes scary stuff with their computers (or so they feel) and teaching them new things. I am also devoted to running, some times more than others. And giving back in some way is also important to me, as well as recycling, growing my own veggies and driving a Prius.
Thank you for your time, June!

June has been a life saver for the company I work for. We had so many problems of all different kinds with our network. We had another IT company located in Wareham that made numerous promises to fix our problems. They worked on our network for over 15-20 hours (which we are now being billed for) and never fixed the problems. That company left us without a network for a comined time of 4 days. They promised to fix the prolem and would make appointments to come to the office and never show up or call us to let us know they could not make it June came in and after 4 hours had our complete network up and running. She has come to the rescue so many times now and in doing so has helped our company run more effeciantly. I would highly reccommend her for any home or office system.
