    Your computer is your friend....

Do you see your computer as an adversary? A mystery? Something you would rather not deal with? Does the task of creating a website for yourself or your business seem like an insurmountable obstacle? Would you like to learn to maintain your website yourself? Is your task list overwhelming you? Would you like for your computer to be a time-saver instead of a time-waster?

I can help you make your computer your friend—something that can make your life easier, earn you more money and save you time. I can also assist you in handling the overload in your life, personal and professional. And together we can create a web presence for you that reflects who you are and what you offer.

Intention of Elena's Computerworks

I am committed to offering a range of services that provide you with a greater ease in using your computer and accomplishing your work, and to offering a more personalized approach to handling your computer needs than a large consulting firm can offer. With an extensive background in IT, applications administration, Help Desk assistance, word processing, imaging and legal support of all kinds, as well as years as a trainer, I can offer a broad range of assistance.

Many computer consulting and graphic design firms economize by hiring young, inexperienced programmers, webmasters, graphic designers, trainers and word processors, who then learn on the job at your expense, while the firm is charging you a large fee to cover their Manhattan overhead. Because I have no overhead, I can offer you my years of experience and expertise at a much lower rate. And because you are dealing with me directly, I can also save you time. In addition, I offer non-technical personal assistance that most computer technicians do not offer.

  • If you're a professional, I can help you learn to organize your life using your computer software, saving you enormous time and stress. In addition, I can offer PC customization, database entry, emailings, web research, application training, personal or household organization and other assistance.
     
  • If you're an attorney, I can bring my experience of more than two decades in offering legal support to you, whether you or your staff require long-term assistance in multiple areas, need a presentation, exhibit or financials, or simply need a brief with table of authorities prepared for filing with citations conformed to Blue Book format.
