Who Like People
More Than Computers
The Strive team is made up of technical professionals with experience across network and systems administration, cybersecurity, programming and automation, web development, and support for both Windows and Mac environments. That range of expertise matters because most organizations do not need a single “computer person”; they need a thoughtful IT partner who can understand the whole environment, support users well, and help technology decisions make sense for the business.
Founder and CEO Tim Singleton began his IT career in 1999 and founded Strive Technology Consulting in 2006. His background combines deep troubleshooting experience with a long-standing interest in communication, emotional intelligence, and human relationships. That influence shows up in how Strive works with clients: technical issues are handled seriously, but conversations are kept respectful, plainspoken, and focused on what people actually need to move forward.
Across the team, Strive is intentionally built to combine technical discipline with strong client relationships. Engineers are expected not only to solve problems, but to explain what is happening in terms people can understand, document systems carefully, and support clients with patience and professionalism. The result is an IT team that helps organizations feel more confident in their technology instead of overwhelmed by it.
