Introduction
I’ve been working with Apple systems for over 40 years (since 1982) and was recognized in 2015 as one of the top-ranked Apple engineers on Thumbtack. I’m a certified Apple Certified System Administrator (ACSA), which is the highest level of Apple IT certification. I have also completed certifications for: Apple Certified Desktop Technician Apple Certified Mac Technician Apple Certified Portable Technician Apple Xsan for Pro Video Originally, I came from a law enforcement background and received certified forensic data recovery training through NASA, as well as additional forensics training accredited by the California Department of Justice. I’ve used these skills to recover data from countless drives, often for clients who believed their data was irrecoverable. After transitioning from law enforcement, I specialized in creating Hollywood-class Apple editing systems for the film industry. I’ve provided solutions for clients worldwide, including The Walt Disney Company, ImageMovers Digital, the Goddard Space Flight Center, Honeywell, and the FBI. I was one of the first users to adopt 4K cameras from RED Digital Cinema (cameras #20 and #21) and have an extensive background in shooting across multiple camera platforms and formats. Because of my work in the movie industry, I developed a deep marketing background. I’m extremely well-versed in social media marketing, Adobe Photoshop (for both editorial and digital restoration), Adobe Illustrator, and countless other digital tools. I currently serve as the full-time creative director for a California-based firm, where I rely on my digital art skills every day. I love that no two projects are alike—there’s always a bit of mystery and discovery involved. Being able to deliver solutions that perfectly address each client’s unique challenges is incredibly rewarding. I look forward to talking with you about your specific needs and how we can solve them together.

I really appreciated Torrey diagnosing my external hard drive problem so easily and fast. I will definitely keep this contact for future issues with my computer too. The instructions for me to follow were easy. I’m not technically or computer intuitive so I appreciated those very much.

I so appreciate the honesty that Torrey gave about the project I had about converting an old iMac. What I wanted to do made sense as a DIY project, but it was a little beyond what I was comfortable with. So I was looking to hire someone to complete it for me. With that in mind it really didn't make sense financially to move forward. Torrey suggested an alternative route for my iMac, after all it still holds value and the monitor is still top of the line today. His suggestion on how to get some new life out of this old computer was spot and something I hadn't even considered before. Unfortunately for Torrey's pocket book his suggestion was something I was willing and capable of doing myself. I really do appreciate his guidance and honesty. Even thought it was just a small interaction, I am looking forward to a chance to woking with him in the future.

Torrey was extremely knowledgeable and professional. He did more than I expected with my computers and was able to fix everything I hired him for and answered all of my questions. I would highly recommend to others and will definitely be using him again in the future.

Torrey, was fabulous! Very professional, quality work, and even responsive while taking care of family. It was a pleasure to meet with you and thank you for all you did for me pertaining to my hard drive issues. You definitely went over and above for me and I’ll never forget it! Why deal with the rest when you can have the best.

Torrey checked my laptop for several possible issues, and since there was a problem he could not fix at his studio, he did not charge me. He recommended further course of action.
