Friendly and honest computer care.
Garden City Computer Care is an in-home computer support service. I explain everything in plain English, and leave your devices and data in better shape than I found them. I help you move off platforms that collect your information for advertising, and onto Canadian alternatives. I value honesty, sustainability and privacy.

Sustainability is core personal value at Garden City Computer Care. Before entering the tech industry, I spent over a decade working in the environmental sector, helping businesses across Canada reduce their waste, energy, and water consumption. That background, combined with formal education in environmental sciences and sustainable business, shapes how I approach every job.
In practice, that means extending the life of your existing devices wherever possible rather than pushing unnecessary upgrades, and arriving by foot, bike or in a low-emission vehicle. When a device has truly reached the end of its life, I'll help you find responsible disposal options rather than sending it straight to the landfill.
Privacy is a foundation at Garden City Computer Care. Every decision about how this business operates runs through a simple question: does this respect your data?
In practice, that means all work is performed in your home, on your device, with you present. Nothing is copied, retained, or accessed after the job is done. When remote support is needed, it happens only with your explicit consent and full visibility — you see everything I do, in real time. I use privacy-focused applications and products in my business, and I won't recommend them to you unless they're genuinely the right fit for your situation. New clients come through referrals and word of mouth, not surveillance advertising.
When it comes to software recommendations, I prioritize Canadian and open-source alternatives that keep your data out of foreign jurisdictions and away from platforms built on harvesting it.
