Motivated by a desire to own her own company and provide critical services for business operations, Allison worked her way up in the industry and put herself through college. In 1984, she worked with one of the first PC networking installations and became an advocate for technology in the workplace.

When Allison founded the company, she brought with her an extensive background in the accounting field. She also had a background in management consulting and systems installation. Today, customers keep coming back to Computer Buzz because the company is grounded on the core values of integrity, honesty and hard work.
