A veteran-owned IT business built on accountability, technical depth, and a genuine investment in the communities we serve.
IT infrastructure and project management professional with over a decade of hands-on experience across technology, finance, accounting, and operations. I built GroffNet to be the kind of IT provider small businesses actually deserve — accountable, technically deep, and direct. When you call GroffNet, you get me. The same person who designed your network, knows your environment, and will fix it when something goes wrong. No hand-offs. No runaround.
My work history spans IT infrastructure, finance, and accounting — which means I don't just understand the technology side of your business. I understand how your systems connect to your books, your workflows, and your bottom line. That cross-functional background is what lets me bridge the gap between your IT environment and how your business actually runs.
I've designed and managed networks, built integrations between business platforms, automated back-office processes, and implemented cloud-first identity and security stacks. When the conversation moves from the server room to the balance sheet, I don't need a translator.
Five years active duty, including a combat deployment to Afghanistan. Followed by nine years as an Army Reservist, primarily in healthcare operations and communications. Military service gave me a foundation in high-stakes operations, logistics under pressure, and leadership where failure isn't an option — and that mindset carries directly into how I run client engagements.
Working in healthcare operations means understanding regulated environments, strict documentation requirements, and systems where continuity matters. That experience shapes how I approach security, disaster recovery, and compliance for every client I work with.
GroffNet isn't a remote provider — we live and work here. Being embedded in the Pickerington community isn't a marketing line; it's how we operate.
I live in Pickerington with my wife and three kids. That's not just a business address — it means the businesses I work with are the same businesses I walk past, eat at, and recommend to my neighbors. When your technology works, I see it. When it doesn't, I hear about it.
We're actively involved in the Pickerington Local School District and local events throughout the community. This is where we raise our family, and where we intend to build long-term relationships — not transactional ones.
Whether you need ongoing managed IT or a specific project handled right, let's start with an honest conversation about what you're working with.
