Hi, I'm Ashley. I've spent over 20 years solving complex technology problems for Fortune 500 companies. Now I use that same expertise to help busy families and professionals create homes that actually work for their lives.

I'm a systems engineer by training and a translator by instinct. I've led and supported complex, globally distributed systems and learned how to turn hard problems into clear, practical plans for stakeholders at every level.

Here's the thing: Your home isn't a corporate data center, and you're not an IT department. You need systems that work quietly in the background while you focus on your family, your business, and your life. That's exactly what I design: technology that supports you, not the other way around.

What My Corporate Background Means for Your Home

  • Your smart home stays secure and private, meaning no data leaking to big tech
  • Everything works reliably, even when the internet goes down
  • No vendor lock-in means you're not stuck with expensive subscriptions forever
  • Clear instructions and support you can actually understand and use

Why That Matters at Home

  • Automations that run locally and keep working during outages
  • Fewer apps, fewer alerts, fewer headaches
  • Data stays in your home or office instead of in someone else's cloud
  • Systems that scale from one room to multiple properties

Why We Build on Home Assistant

We use Home Assistant because it keeps your data in your home, works with any brand of device, and doesn't require monthly subscriptions to function properly. It lets us integrate the best devices for your needs, whether they use Zigbee, Z-Wave, Thread/Matter, or Wi-Fi, without locking you into one brand.

  • Local control for speed, privacy, and reliability
  • Works with mixed-device environments (past, present, and future)
  • Expandable as your needs grow or change
  • Clear dashboards that work for families and teams

Curious about protocols? Here are a quick primers on Zigbee vs. Z-Wave and when to use them versus making use of newer smart home protocols Matter and Thread.

How We Work

1) Quick Chat

A free 30-minute conversation to understand what's frustrating you about your current setup and what success would look like.

2) Your Custom Plan

Whether it's a focused security check or a whole home blueprint, you get a clear roadmap you can follow yourself or hand to any contractor.

3) Bring Your Plan to Life

We handle the technical setup, teach everyone in your household how to use it, and leave you with simple instructions for the future.

Local service area: New Jersey, Southeastern Pennsylvania, and Northern Delaware. Remote guidance available outside our service area.

Who We Serve

  • Families seeking calmer routines and safer homes
  • Solopreneurs and small offices needing reliable, secure spaces
  • Real estate investors and property managers who value uptime and ROI
  • Caregivers building supportive environments for elders and kids

Different needs. Same promise: privacy, reliability, and systems you'll actually love using.

The result? Homes where the lights turn themselves off, the doors lock automatically, and you get a text if there's a water leak—all without having to become a tech expert or sacrifice your family's privacy.
