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.
