About Me

Hi, I’m Daneke (rhymes with “unique”)—a former business professional, teacher, and school leader turned tech consultant. I help entrepreneurs organize, streamline, and optimize their digital systems so they can spend less time managing tech—and more time doing what they actually love.

I’m known for making tech feel approachable, even for people who don’t consider themselves “techy.” Whether it’s setting up tools, creating custom systems, or showing you how everything works in plain English, I’ve got you covered. My goal isn’t just to make things look neat—it’s to make them work better for you, your business, and your brain.

When I’m not building workflows or crafting step-by-step guides, you’ll usually find me in the garden, working on a DIY project, or getting distracted by my cats.

 I started my career in business—working in insurance and operations—before moving into the world of education, where I spent over a decade in charter schools as both a teacher and a school leader.

Throughout that time, I naturally became the go-to person for anything tech-related. I managed shared drives, set up communication systems, built spreadsheets to track everything from student progress to staff duties, and trained teams on how to use tools that actually supported their work.

I also have training and experience in learning differences—both with students and adults—which shaped how I approach everything I do. I don’t believe in one-size-fits-all systems. I take the time to learn how you work best and build tech solutions that match your style, pace, and comfort level.

And here’s what I know for sure: Learning new tools can slow you down—especially when you're already moving at the speed of light running your business, serving your clients, and keeping everything else afloat. It's just one more thing on an already packed to-do list. That’s where I come in—to take that pressure off, make your tech work for you, and guide you through it all with clear steps and ongoing support.
