Your fractional CTO.
Most small businesses, churches, and nonprofits can't justify a full-time CTO or IT director, but they also can't afford to ignore technology until it breaks. I run Light Works on a fractional model: strategy, architecture, managed IT, and custom development, on a monthly retainer.

I help small organizations make good technology decisions and keep their systems running. That usually shows up as one of these.
Fractional CTO
Strategy, architecture, vendor calls. The technology decisions your team can't punt anymore.
Security & Identity
Endpoint protection, access controls, monitoring. The things that have to actually work.
Managed IT
Email, backups, infrastructure, the laptop the new hire turned on this morning. On a retainer.
Custom Development
When there's nothing off-the-shelf that fits. Full-stack web and mobile, built carefully.
From compromised AWS to a team that doesn't think about IT anymore.

Talking Bibles International came to us after cryptocurrency miners compromised their AWS environment through an exposed credential. They didn't need a quick patch. They needed someone who could rebuild the security posture and stay on as the person who watches it.
We hardened endpoints, locked down access, set up monitoring, and audited every tool they were paying for. A few got cut. The rest got configured properly. Today the team focuses on getting audio Bibles to non-readers around the world, and the technology stays out of their way.
