Hello, I’m Marco
I work in i.t. so you don’t have to
one Trick Pony
I do I.T. work for small businesses and residential clients in the GTA West (Toronto). I have been in the tech world since before Pentium was a thing. I know Windows, Mac, Linux, cyber security and a bit of WordPress.
I also teach at Mohawk College and love spending my spare time with my family.
I.T. done right
From networking,Ā cyber security, computer hardware and software installation and service, I help your business thrive and conquer technology!
Small Business Dude
I love small businesses! We keep the economy humming and I made my career’s focus to empower owners/operators.
I Teach Tech Stuff
“Those who don’t know, teach” is the dumbest saying I’ve ever heard… you must have the patience and the people skills to teach adults, and I am very proud of mine š
Affordable and Reliable
I believe outstanding service can be delivered at a reasonable price. I value my skills and experience, and I am very capable of providing cost-efficient solutions.
Cyber Security Driven
I am not the smartest geek around but I know the business impact of a cyber attack very well. I love having the uncomfortable conversations that will make you and your data safer online.
I Don't Speak Geek
My clients love me because (besides my latin accent) I do not bore them with mumbo jumbo… I explain what’s the deal in plain, simple and memorable words.

Let Me Introduce You To My Baby
I founded TEK IT UP in October 2008 after spending almost a year trying to land my first I.T. job in Canadaā¦well, after many interviews and few offers, I decided to open shop doing what I love: dealing with tech drama so my clients donāt have to!
Many moons have passed, and I am still around doing what I loveā¦ more than 85% of the clients acquired during my humble beginnings are still with me š
I love helping you use tech the way you need it. Don’t miss out!
