Chris joined the PCS team in 2005 after deciding it was time to change careers. Prior to becoming a computer consultant, Chris spent 14 years as an automotive machinist where he specialized in high performance and racing engine design and assembly. To begin the transition, Chris took night classes in computer training where he earned his Microsoft MCSE+ Security certification. Since school and his career change, Chris’s focus is primarily on ShoreTel VoIP phone systems and client/server implementations.

Chris currently holds the following Microsoft Certifications:

• MCTS: Windows Server 2008 Active Directory Configuration
• MCTS: Windows Server 2008 Network Infrastructure Configuration
• MCTS: Windows Server 2008 Applications Infrastructure Configuration
• MCITP: Server Administrator on Windows Server 2008
• MCITP: Enterprise Administrator on Windows Server 2008

Chris is also Windows 7 and Windows 8 Certified.

When not installing or maintaining Mitel systems, Chris enjoys spending time with his wife Tina and their two dogs Katy and Draco.
