I recently wrote a children’s book, “King of the Jungle" and will be donating all proceeds to help educate kids effected by the civil war in Sri Lanka. You can purchase it through Amazon or Bookmasters (Amazon is currently out of stock).  If you are associated with a children’s foundation please contact me for donation and/or fundraising options.  Repost this on your wall and support the cause.  Thank you! 

Come explore this sweet little book about a lion who sacrifices his desire to be friends with the other jungle animals because of his natural instinct to eat them for dinner! It is a beautifully illustrated hardcover that teaches little ones about the importance of love, friendship, and family.

        Andrew and his company were responsible for getting on track with our office technology.  When he started working with us, we had a haphazard pile of old equipment, and our network was on its last legs.  He managed to keep it all running long enough to design and implement a new network with a plan for replacing all of the desktop equipment over a three year period.

He was always quick to respond when we had issues and solved our problems quickly.  More importantly he was always as concerned about spending money as we were, looking out for our best interests.

I highly recommend Andrew.
