John Haynes joined the PCS team in 2024, bringing 15 years of experience in IT consulting. Over the course of his career, John has worked extensively with various technologies and vendors, including Microsoft, VMware, Sangoma/FreePBX, Ubiquiti, Datto BCDR, and Fortinet. From recovering missing files to setting up advanced firewalls and securing networks or cloud services against cyber threats, John has built a reputation for providing practical, effective solutions for his clients.
John’s credentials include a Fortinet Certified Associate certification and a CompTIA A+ certification from 2009, a time when certifications didn’t come with an expiration date. His years of consulting have taught him the importance of tailoring solutions to meet each client’s unique needs. No two situations are the same, and he takes pride in his ability to think outside the box and craft innovative strategies that fit the client’s specific goals and challenges.
Outside of work, John enjoys spending quality time with his wife and daughter. As a family, they enjoy leisurely walks when the weather is nice or cozying up with a good book when it’s not. John volunteers as a livestream producer for his church, helping to share services with a broader audience. He’s also a hands-on hobbyist who enjoys tinkering with his 3D printer, assembling DIY soldering kits, and working on his car—always on the lookout for his next project.
John’s approach to IT isn’t just about solving problems—it’s about empowering people. He is passionate about sharing his knowledge and encourages clients to ask questions, no matter how small they might seem. To John, there’s no such thing as a “stupid question.” He’s always ready to explain concepts in a way that makes technology approachable and easy to understand. If he doesn’t have the answer to a question, he’s not afraid to admit it—but you can bet he’ll work tirelessly to find it.
For John, serving in Palitto Consulting Services is more than just a job; it’s a way to make a meaningful impact by helping businesses and individuals leverage technology to its fullest potential. His dedication, creativity, and passion for continuous learning ensure that clients receive the best possible service every time.
