I love the autonomy and ability to work on different tasks every day.I have a dog named Queenie. I mostly listen to Jazz. My newest hobby is vintage watch repair (1900s to 1970s)
I specialize in MDM and have 5 years of experience
All I need is a non-fiction book, a beach chair, and sand and I'm set. Alternatively, I'm fairly horrible at video games, but I try my best and enjoy games as much as possible.
I am a cat person - I have six of them. I am a rocker - I play guitar and love hard rock, classic rock, grunge, and heavy metal. I am married and have two stepsons, ages 16 and 19. I have a Master's Degree in International Studies.
I've been in the IT industry for 26 years and have had many roles. I currently specialize in device management (MDM).
Outside of work, I am a writer, artist, cosplayer, and musician. I'm a lover of recreational mathematics and puzzle games. 日本語も勉強します！
5 years IT Help Desk experience
I consider myself a multi-faceted artist; I dance, draw, film, etc. I find expressing myself through different art forms is therapeutic!
I have 4+ years of IT experience and 8+ years of customer service experience. I'm very comfortable working on both Windows and Mac devices. My customer service experience allows me to ensure whoever I'm servicing gets taken care of in the friendliest and most efficient way.
When I'm not helping my team solve the world's IT problems at work, I enjoy a quiet life in rural Northern California with my partner. We love to go rafting in the lakes here and exploring the national forest with our two dogs.
I run many of Ignition's internal operations, as well as client-facing operations. I am the technical lead on many projects, and a point of escalation for thorny issues that need careful consideration and thorough remedies. Some recent accomplishments include implementing device trust to secure Ignition's core SaaS stack and creating a security and best practices review framework for Microsoft 365.
I love troubleshooting technology. After 12 years, I still salivate over cleaning up a rat nest of a network, the uglier and messier the better, physically and virtually. Also, I live for my dog, Dax, who is the bestest girl.
Life Pro-Tip: Go out and travel. The world is too small for you to stay right where you've always been. Go out and discover the world around you. You'll be surprised what you'll find and be better off because of it.
I am the cat-herder of Ignition. At our last corporate gathering, our name tags had a spot for secret talents; I listed 'Plate Spinning' as mine. I've often said my job consists of a million little (but all: important!) things. I manage all the details and keep the ship on an even keel.My husband and I have an Italian Greyhound named Pippa, two grown sons, and a brand-new grandson. Our travels typically revolve around seeing family members in their various locations across the country.I'm a child of the hard rock era. I've been to more loud concerts than I can count but thankfully still have my hearing. Ignition gave me a Rush tee shirt for my last birthday.
I'm a seasoned administrative professional with a diverse background ranging from consumer finance to medical office and laboratory experience.
I support the Ignition team in the realm of human resources, payroll, and bookkeeping. I wrangle AR/AP, purchasing, and anything else my team throws at me.
I love all animals and always have a rescue dog companion. I feed the birds at my house every morning. I am passionate about art and photography, and have a BFA in graphic design. I like to spend my free time wrestling to help me stay in shape, both physically and mentally, or I am out walking my dog, or taking photos of birds.

I love all kinds of music from indie folk and chill synth pop music to classic rock and hip-hop, but my favorite genre is 90s hip-hop. My last vacation was a camping trip to the Rockies in southern Colorado. I enjoy hiking, camping, being outdoors in general, and a fervent collector of dad jokes

I am the Help Desk Manger and I have been here for 7+ years.
I feel fortunate that my job allows me to make a positive impact on both people and the environment. I take great pride in ensuring that electronic waste is recycled or reused responsibly in a way that benefits those who need it. When I'm not at work, I love spending time outdoors, hiking, bouldering, and painting watercolors of nature.
I have worked with Ignition for over two years in the Laptop Logistics Department. My primary responsibility is managing the logistics of your inventory from procurement to the end of its lifecycle, whether that be responsibly e-wasting or donating it. In addition, I execute regular audits, monitor your shipments, and prepare your devices. My primary focus is on clear communication, meaningful interactions, and working with you to solve your logistical challenges.
I love making and listening to music of all kinds. I've got 1 cat and 10 guitars, the cat is shy but the guitars are not. I often go for long walks and would describe myself as a dog person. I also enjoy reading autobiographies and science fiction. I am a donut aficionado.
I love having opportunities to investigate and dig into complex problems and collaborating with my team to find creative solutions. I have no kids, but I live with my cat (I'm definitely a cat person). I like all kinds of music. My last exciting vacation was a trip to Disneyland in 2022. I like creating art and playing videogames in my free time.

I joined Ignition as part of Laptop Logistics in 2021, and remained heavily involved with the department as the Logistics Supervisor until March 2023.

Noam Birnbaum has spent over three decades solving the technology challenges of over a thousand organizations. Originally from New York City, Birnbaum studied at Oberlin College before receiving two masters degrees in literature and the arts. He rose through the I.T. teams of Fortune 500 firms, major educational institutions, and small businesses before founding the boutique Apple I.T. consultancy, MacCentric Solutions, at the age of 23. After broadening its business model to support the full expanse of startup and SMB I.T., Birnbaum rebranded the firm to Ignition, Inc. It remains one of the oldest Apple-specialist firms in the world.
Over the course of Ignition’s 26-year history, and through close collaborations with dozens of Bay Area and Silicon Valley business leaders, Birnbaum has become a sought-after resource, advising venture-backed companies on how to scale I.T. capacity faster than seems possible.
He has also taught Hebrew school, written for local radio, published two chapbooks of poetry, performed stand-up comedy, produced digital video, founded a startup I.T. meetup, completed the California AIDS Ride, and raised two crazy-awesome kids. He’s an accomplished classical pianist of over four decades and an avid chef with a killer bagna cauda recipe up his sleeve. Birnbaum has sat on the governance committees of numerous Bay Area Jewish organizations and is a member of the Board of Directors of Oakland’s Temple Beth Abraham and a local chapter of the Entrepreneurs Organization. He lives in Oakland with his wife and children.
