Hello!
I’m George O’Brien
Your Information Tech Extraordinaire
About me
An IT Guru in Boston, Mass
Google IT Certified Professional | Information & Event Technology Specialist | Project Manager | Website Designer, Developer | IT Consultant | You name it, I’ve Done it
My passion for information technology, whether helping a business with branding, web design, web, app, and software development, or consulting, all stem from one place; that new shared connection and my love for the digital arts. Though, admittedly I am enamored with everything tech. My work allows me to touch the lives of and connect with many people, whether clients or the IT guru professionals who (sometimes) work alongside me from project to project.
Notably, I love to travel! If given the opportunity, I will travel from site to site as this is an added bonus and something I hope for always in my business and personal life. I love what I do—pure freedom, plain and simple.

The core curriculum includes courses such as General, Organic, & Inorganic Chemistry, Biochemistry, and Chemical Dynamics. Though I had a deep interest in the way things worked at the molecular level, by the time I was finished with my degree I found my love in graphic design and computer science.

MS Business & Entrepreneurship
Entrepreneurship is a practical, hands-on program with a curriculum designed by actual entrepreneurs who met the challenges of growing an entrepreneurial venture in the face of increasing competition. Two major concentrations, Entrepreneurship and Innovation Leadership focusing on a comprehensive view of business and the strategic thinking needed to run your own. Goge Web Design was my offspring while in the program. I have it to thank for all my successes to date.
