Debbie Mahler’s Summary

Hard-core Entrepreneur: Started my company 10 years ago and refused to say quit. Tell me it can't be done, and I'll show you how to get it done. Although my summary of current professional experience looks scattered, it really isn't. It's actually centered around online presence. The right technology, right now! (One of our trademarks!) Learn it, fix it, get it, secure it!

Instructor: Started teaching early on in my life where I taught sewing at a local park district. Found I loved it and did it well. I am told (by my students) that I have a gift for taking highly technical material and making it sound so simple.

IT Tech/Security Professional: Although I no longer fix, repair, or build systems, I now teach the subject full time - online and I'm working on finishing our new website to be a storehouse of information for the "average" end-user (or those not technically savvy). I continue to have an active role in my clients security objectives while continuing to maintain their network or website security. My company is also a VAR and Partner with TrendMicro and Symantec.

Webmaster: Currently managing 10 small clients websites through multiple phases. A few my company designed and manage, and the others we manage. Keeping content fresh and updated, SEO, and a long list of other specialized services.

Some of my wonderful clients:
Robbins Headache Clinic (http://www.headachedrugs.com)
North Shore Hair Transplant Specialists (http://www.nshts.com)
Florida Judgment Buyers (http://floridajudgmentbuyer.com)
Diversified Services Group (http://www.divservgrp.com)
DSG Fee Recovery (http://www.dsgfeerecovery.com)

My long term goal is to eventually afford the time and financial resources to finish my Ph.D.
