A Philly native, Jim studied Managed Information Systems at Drexel University. He served in the Peace Corps in Tonga, where — after facing the challenge of managing IT at a college of 400 students with no budget — he found his true calling of providing cost-effective IT solutions to small businesses and nonprofits. Jim is a leader in the enterprise security space, including policy, compliance, best practices, and lately, as a small business owner, on using metrics to consistently drive organizational improvements.
