Thirty years in technology. A systems-level perspective.
Cory’s IT is built on hands-on experience across internet service providers, network infrastructure, data centers, enterprise connectivity and independent IT services.
From dial-up infrastructure to today's connected workplace.
My career began in the early days of commercial internet access and bulletin board systems, when building connectivity meant working directly with modems, circuits, routing and the infrastructure behind every session.
I worked with Rose.net in Portland, operating PortMaster modem banks on T1 connectivity and PRI/ATM infrastructure, then moved into point-to-point wireless serving downtown Vancouver businesses.
From there I became a TAC/NOC manager at a major Portland data center in the Pittock Building and worked with NewEdge Networks during the early expansion of DSL across the Pacific Northwest.
After running Cory’s IT for nearly a decade, I brought the business east to be closer to family and rebuilt it in Eastern Washington. Today the goal is the same: make technology useful, dependable and easier for businesses to operate.

I don't see a computer, phone, network, website or business process as an isolated item. They are connected parts of one operation. The best result comes from understanding how those pieces interact and improving the whole system.
