Jade
Jade is the hardware expert and salesmare of the duo. She’s earning her Associates of Applied Science in Computer Information Systems (December 2024). She is a CompTIA Secure Infrastructure Specialist (CSIS) and a CompTIA IT Operations Specialist (CIOS) with a Level 4 Black Belt in Microsoft Access (McGraw Hill) and proficiency in MySQL and SQL Server.

Jade is A+, Networking+, and Security+ Certified by CompTIA.
Aria
Born and raised in Gera, Thuringia, Aria is a German engineered import. With the chancellor’s choice to deploy copper cabling nationwide instead of fiber, her hypersensitivity to latency drove her to optimize all factors within her control. Aria relentlessly tweaked and tuned everything from the TAE connector to the applications running on her local machine and everything in between. Now in Colorado, she’s able to apply these skills towards improving the networks of her clients.
Love Story
Jade and Aria met on Steam in the summer of 2018, immediately connecting over their mutual games and passion for technology. They fell in love over countless clutches in Wingmare and spent the next two years enjoying CS:GO, computer hardware YouTube videos, and legally acquired anime over whatever ping Valve and Discord would allow across the Atlantic Ocean.
