I came up in my father’s contracting business and on the carrier side at Columbus 5-Star distributors. Founded Buckeye in 2003 because I’d seen how the trades earn loyalty and the carriers oversell — and I knew there was a better way.
My Personal Cell 614-989-3900“We take care of everything. And we always answer the phone.”
Voice, network, security, IT, cloud. I lead an Ohio team that handles every layer of your technology — and I stay personally involved with every account, from the first kickoff to every renewal.
One conversation. Six things off your plate.
Most Ohio mid-market businesses run 8–15 separate vendor relationships for their technology. We consolidate them into one.
Your phones
Hosted VoIP, mobile, keep your 614 number. Works on cell, desk, and laptop. Survives outages.
Your network
SD-WAN across all sites, carrier-agnostic. Fiber, fixed wireless, LTE failover — right mix per building.
Your security
24/7 SOC monitoring, EDR, managed firewall. HIPAA / CMMC / SOC 2 ready. Cyber-insurance-passable.
Your cloud
Colocation, Microsoft 365, hybrid, DRaaS. Backups that actually restore. Identity hardened.
Your IT team
Helpdesk, vCIO strategy, monitoring. Co-managed if you have internal IT, fully managed if you don't.
Your bills
Audit + renegotiate every carrier contract. 20–35% saved in 90 days. Same prices as direct, but we fight for you.
Every account. Start to finish. I’m in it.
When the big national MSPs hand you off to an account manager who started six months ago, you’re getting whoever’s available. With us, you’re getting me — for the life of the relationship.
Every kickoff
I run the strategy session personally before any work starts. I learn your stack, your priorities, and your constraints firsthand.
Every QBR
Quarterly business reviews — I’m at the table. Not an account manager who started last month.
Every escalation
Carrier dispute? Outage? Vendor finger-pointing? My cell number is on every contract.
Every renewal
I negotiate every contract renewal personally. Most clients save 15–25% at renewal year because of this.
I get paid by the carriers. Not by you.
Every MSP and telecom advisor in Ohio claims to be “carrier-neutral.” It’s the easiest claim to make and the hardest to verify. Read the actual answer — the carriers and platforms I represent, the compensation structure, and why my advice is on your side.
Why this works: Carrier residual income funds our entire operation. That’s how I can spend the time on every account that the big-MSP model can’t support.
Real Ohio results.

Want a real audit? Call or book a time.
20 minutes on the phone, no sales pitch. I’ll pull your bills, look at your stack, and tell you what I’d change. Reply within 1 business hour. Always me, never a queue.
