I started my journey from a small town in south east Wisconsin. Elkhorn was a few buildings clumped in the middle of a sea of corn fields. After high school I packed my bags and headed to the University of Wisconsin in LaCrosse.
There I fell in love with the pursuit of knowledge. I studied everything from Asian Philosophy to Modern Physics. I travelled to London for a semester to learn about Europe and the rest of the world. After a quick six years I graduated with degrees in Mathematics and Education. I also completed minors in Computer Science, Physics, and Philosophy.
Upon graduation, I packed my car with everything I owned and headed out west. I was looking for a city with a ski resort in sight, plenty of rock climbing and mountain bike trails, and water near by. After a couple of months searching I arrived in Bend.
The last fifteen years have been a blur of all the fun things life in Bend has to offer. I have worked many enjoyable jobs here but I soon decided it was time for something new, and began repairing the Apple products that I had come to love. I have tinkered around with computers for the majority of my life, and Apple products in particular are a joy to use and to work on. Twelve years later I still find a lot of joy from helping people get the most from their computers and phones.
If you are reading this, I hope I get to meet you in the near future. The relationships I have formed over my time with Mactek, have been some of the most rewarding experiences to date.
At MacTek, we love relieving people’s technological suffering by getting them back up and running with their computer or device as fast as possible, with a smile.
So happy we could help.

I was born in Portland, OR and lived in the surrounding cities for the first 20 years of my life. After finally making my way out to Bend, I quickly fell in love with this town and all it has to offer. My favorite part about Bend is the fact that you can get anywhere here, in fifteen minutes. If you want to be in the woods, drive 15 minutes one way. If you want to be downtown, drive 15 minutes another way. I just love this town, and have really made it my home. I can’t imagine living anywhere else.
After a couple years of searching for a job with a local company, who cares about their employees and strives to make a positive difference, I found Mactek! Turns out helping people and constant learning is abundant here, so I adapted quite fast. I have always wanted a job where I could feel like I was able to help someone, and definitely found that with Mactek and The iPhone Professor. From working on phones to helping with computer issues, there is a lot to learn and help others with.
When I’m not working, I spend most of my time with my dogs and my significant other. I enjoy camping, fishing, hiking, going to concerts, getting tattooed, watching football, and taking tons of photos everywhere I go. If you want to chat, stop by Mactek and lets have a fun conversation!

Apple Computer Technician
I was in born in Portland and moved to Bend when I was 15. I have a 16 year old daughter, a 22 year old son and a three year old Yorkie named Sophia, who are the light of my life. My passions are my kids, my dog, music, playing pool, the sunshine, the ocean and of course my work.
I have been working with repairing iPhones and Mac’s for about 10 years. I was an AppleCare Senior Advisor for five years. I then managed and was the lead technician at an Apple repair shop for about three years. After that, I started my own small business going to peoples homes and business repairing, teaching and consulting on Apple products plus much more. I started working at MacTek in April of 2022. I am really enjoying it here. Everyone is very friendly and very knowledgable. I am excited to be part of the team!
Our Office Headquarters in Bend, Oregon
We’ve been building up quite the space for the past few years. The building that we rented a space out of we purchased. We added solar, kombucha in the back, conference rooms, mailboxes to rent, and remote work stations.
We love working with natural products so the inside is decorated with hand made live-edge tables and counters. Our display for our phones and computers for sale is custom and always changing. We have a salt-water tank with creatures of the sea that is breath-taking to watch.
Please stop in and check out our digs. We have some big plans for the future. We hope you’ll join us.
-Cheers
