Our Team
In my free time I love to spend my time traveling, making music, and building guitars.
Daniel Collett
Team Lead & IT Systems Engineer
I like to travel, garden, and learn about community development. I run marathons, and dream to one day complete all six World Marathon Majors courses.
Nick Plagman-Frank
Account Management & Business Development
Everyone who knows me also knows everything about my senior kitty whom I brought with me from Europe. I love playing PC games, reading about mythology and testing my creativity (and skills...) with web design.
Laura Sermus
Web Services Specialist
When I’m not saving the city from certain technological doom, you'll find me on a film set or at home creating videos, playing video games and watching YouTube.
Casey Brockway
Help Desk & On-Site Support Specialist
As a kid, my biggest dream was to have so many CDs that I would run out of places to put them. Now, I’ve upgraded my dreams to be the best IT professional that I can be.
Sorin Nedelcea
IT Support Specialist
When I’m not at work, I enjoy attending Ballet, playing board games and strategy games, and spending time with my partner and three cats.
Andrew Young
IT Support Specialist
After many unsuccessful attempts to join a company as a computer technician, I learned web design and SEO and started to do home visits, helping people with their computer issues — that’s how PRO got started.
Florian Militaru
President & IT Consultant
If I'm not out bicycling, I like to watch hockey (go Penguins!), dive deep into the New York Times crossword puzzle archive, or play tennis with my wife.
Andrew Flechtner
IT Support Specialist
When I’m not working, I’m either riding my motorcycle or spending time with my wife and daughter.
Cosmin Stoleru
Wiring Tech
I moved to Georgia in 1999. I love the south, the heath, the humidity, the trees, the sound of cicadas in the summer. I've been working in IT my whole life, and specialize in remote management and monitoring.
In my free time I try to keep my 4 year old son out of trouble, I also like working on DIY projects around the house.
Greg Barsky
Systems Administrator
Back in Ukraine, I started a small library with a collection of books that I am very proud of. My dream is to bring this library to the United States one day and share my love of Ukrainian literature with others.
