Howdy, Brent Strange here! I’m a 35+ year veteran of technology; starting back in 1985 when I was writing BASIC on my first computer, a Commodore 64.

My career in tech started with building and repairing PCs at Microtech, moved into software and hardware testing at PcTest, which then landed me at Intel. With a passion for testing, programming and graphic design the world was my oyster and my journey continued to FinTech at Corillian/CheckFree/Fiserv. From there I moved into the domains and hosting business with GoDaddy and then WebPros.
