Background & Experience
Jamieâs journey in tech began in the trenches of technical support, where she solved hundreds of Windows problems every single day. From âmy computer wonât startâ panic calls to cryptic error codes that made no sense, Jamie has encounteredâand fixedâjust about every Windows problem imaginable.
That daily immersion in real-world troubleshooting taught her something crucial: most Windows issues have surprisingly simple solutions if you know where to look and how to approach them systematically.

Jamieâs Approach & Philosophy
Patient & Empathetic: Jamie knows how frustrating tech problems are because sheâs heard it in thousands of voices over the years. She never makes readers feel bad for not knowing somethingâtechnology should work for people, not the other way around.

Every guide is written for beginners while still providing value for advanced users through detailed explanations and alternative solutions.
Easiest First: Jamie always provides the simplest solution first, then progressively more complex options only if needed. Why spend 30 minutes on an advanced fix when a 2-minute solution might work? This approach saves time and builds confidence.
Systematic Problem-Solving: Every troubleshooting guide follows a logical progression: validate the problem, check the simple stuff first, work through possibilities methodically, and use decision trees to guide you to the right solution for your specific situation.
Building Confidence: Jamie explains what each step accomplishes and what you should expect to see. This helps you know if youâre on the right track and builds confidence that yes, you can fix this yourself.
Validation & Hope: Jamie validates your frustrationâitâs real, and itâs okay to be annoyed when technology doesnât work. But she also provides hope: nearly every problem has a solution, and sheâs helped thousands of people find it. Youâre not alone, and this is fixable.
