My name is Laverne, a native North Carolinian who loves to travel and new adventures. I’m a lover of all types of sports and a superhero fanatic. My expertise consists of over twenty-five years of technology education and experience, even when “computer science” was the official term (does anyone remember floppy and zip disks?).

- Computer Troubleshooting and Other Help Desk Issues
I have lived through the evolution of technology, including the Internet’s full commercialization in the US. Can you imagine going to a website today using dial-up?
My background includes servicing computers as a technician, teaching computing concepts as an adjunct instructor, troubleshooting people’s technical problems as a help desk specialist, training people on the associated risks of our digital world, and much more.
For the last eleven years, my focus has been in the information security/cybersecurity space. Just like in the real world, you have tricksters on the Internet too. These different aspects equip me with the knowledge and skills to help anyone at any stage of their technology journey.
I can assist with general computer skills and software suites such as Microsoft Office. Don’t be afraid; I got you. I look forward to helping you through the “OTL Guide Me at Home” mentoring program.
