Hi, I'm Kia.

I'm a Apple Consultant working remotely, travelling in a classic Chevy K5 Blazer with my dog Woof! and documenting the journey.

Hi, I'm Kia.

About

I've been an Apple fan since the early to mid 80's. I remember buying Apple-related magazines hoping that one day I would have one.

One of my first ever jobs was designing rubber stamps on an Apple Mac with two floppy drives, one with the OS and the other with a design app.

Since then I've have the pleasure of either owning or working on pretty much every Apple device that was ever created.

This lead me down a path of becoming an Apple Specialist, famously known as The MacJunky, and even head-hunted by several companies.

I worked at various companies due to my speciality as The Apple Expert throughout the years before I started my own Apple Consulting business.

Currently

My love for learning lead me to becoming the Tech Minimalist, as well as a Basecamp and Daylite Consultant, and even a Web Developer.

Today I use that knowledge, and my passion for simplicity, to provide Apple consulting and coaching on an ad-hoc, contract and project basis.

History

Worked at several places installing, advising and consulting on music tech for many studios in London, Ireland and parts of Europe.

Moved into TV at ITN news network, where I took care of all studio and computer equipment. And was even a sound engineer for the morning news.

Started a consulting firm in the UK, helping small businesses and professionals with their Apple systems and devices.

Moved to The Netherlands and started MacJunky doing the same, but decided not to scale to make things simpler (family on the way etc.)

I was asked to join Blast Radius, where I oversaw the servers, client machines and general technical solutions for staff and executives.
