Who We Are

Happy New Year everyone!

With a new year comes new beginnings, and at CTSI we are excited to be joining the blogging community and sharing some of our industry knowledge and expertise. To begin, this is an introductory blog post so you can get to know us a little better.

The primary contact and author will be me, Julie Heinrich, the Marketing and Reporting Specialist for CTSI. I will be writing once a week (every Wednesday, today is an exception) discussing the IT industry and how CTSI is adapting to this ever-changing field. I would love to hear any feedback as well as to what you guys want to know, learn, or discuss. This blog is meant to be informative, and hopefully at times entertaining.

Now I'm sure a lot of you are wondering what in the world is CTSI, and how does it affect me? CTSI stands for Computer Transition Services, Inc., and we have been in business for over 27 years. We handle business computing solutions in the Lubbock, TX area such as network monitoring, data backup and disaster recovery, and server repair, just to name a few. Our core focus is Managed Services, which in a nutshell means we monitor your networks, computers, and servers to ensure they are running efficiently and effectively. For example, if you are a business owner, you need your computers to run well, and preferably have no issues. While we don't live in a perfect world and issues will arise, CTSI is constantly monitoring your network to ensure we prevent such issues from happening, or at least catch a problem before it gets out of control.

That is just a little background about us, and I know that sounded very technical. I promise as time goes on I will explain more, and I will try to stay away from sounding too technical. I have a Marketing background so I understand that some of these terms seem like a foreign language. I am even still learning about all of them! But I am always here to answer any questions you guys have. Mostly I want to discuss things happening in the IT industry so you are aware of how it will affect you. Like I said however, I am open to answering questions or discussing a particular subject if you would like.

To wrap up, I will give you all a little background on me so you can know your author better. I was born and raised in Lubbock, TX and graduated from Coronado High School in 2008. I then attended Texas Tech University and received my degree in Marketing and Management in the spring of 2012. While in college I worked as a recruitment specialist for AFLAC, and the fall semester of my senior year I interned in Washington, D.C. for Congressman Randy Neugebauer, finishing up my final semester working for Mr. Neugebauer on his campaign. I have been working for CTSI since August, and I have loved every minute of it. This career has allowed me to use my talents and experiences and has helped me grow as a professional. I love the people I work with, and rarely do you find such a supportive and wonderful staff.

Well that about wraps up this first blog post. Please feel free to comment if you have something you would like me to discuss next week, or have any questions. Until next time!
