Mike hopes to lead Anchor to the next level with his passion and drive.
Jason Allison
Network Administrator
I grew up in San Diego, California. My love for computers started with games like Oregon Trail and Where in the World is Carmen San Diego. In the late 90’s my friend showed me how to build my own gaming computer and I was hooked. I soon found out how much I loved troubleshooting and fixed computers. Everything I know has come from my general thirst for knowledge. I love to know how and why things work and how to fix them. My first IT job was with a small startup pharmaceutical company where I learned a lot about small business IT and what it takes to get a company off the ground. Fun fact, I was born in Australia!
Patrick Kiah
Professional Services Lead
Patrick grew up in western New York and moved to Colorado in 2000. Online gaming got him into building PC’s for himself. This sparked his interest on the “inner workings” of computer networks and systems. Patrick’s time in the industry has been short by comparison to most at his level, only having been in the IT industry since December of 2009. He recently joined Anchor after working as Senior Infrastructure Technician, bringing to Anchor a broader knowledge of multiple systems/solutions and building on his best attribute: excellent customer service. Current certifications include Citrix Certified Administrator (CCA), MCP, ITILv3, Sec+ and A+. Patrick looks to continue expanding his knowledge with new systems that are focused on small business and to keep doing what he loves - making people happy!

James Varga
Network Administrator Technical Lead
I was the family "tech guy" long before starting my career in IT. After a decade in the financial industry, I've spent the last 7 years managing IT for my clients in New York City. Looking for a change of pace and a better lifestyle, my wife and I decided to relocate to Colorado with our three children. I love hiking, skiing and swimming. I'll also read just about anything I can get my hands on. We love being outdoors and are enjoying the amazing experiences that Colorado has to offer.
Jill Jackson
Office Manager
Originally from Long Island, NY, I have planted my roots in Colorado with my husband, daughter and labradoodle. I enjoy everything about this gorgeous state. Although I don't ski, I enjoy cycling, hiking, snowshoeing and road tripping while constantly being awed by the scenery. I have been in the IT industry for over 15 years as VP of Operations/Customer Service for an IT training company and although I've never been technically trained I know if it doesn’t work you should reboot it. I love being Office Manager at Anchor and I laugh every day working alongside this brilliant crew! If I’m not talking about my daughter then I am most likely talking about dogs, my 2nd favorite subject! Fun fact: I’m certified in Canine Massage!
Susan Castle
Service Desk Coordinator
Susan comes to us from sunny Southern California where she spent 10 years at the Happiest Place on Earth! Colorado is a fun change and she loves it here. Susan loves spending time with her family and baking treats to share with the team. Three things she can’t resist are dogs, Zombie movies and anything Star Wars related. Susan genuinely enjoys serving others and can almost always been seen smiling or asking ‘how can I help’?
Joseph Jestes
vCIO
As a Colorado native, I absolutely love being outdoors in this amazing state. My wife and I love to take our dogs camping and for the occasional hike. We have fostered over thirty dogs for the Denver Dumb Friends League, The Rocky Mountain Great Dane Rescue and the Doberman Rescue of Colorado, which we have also been volunteering with for about a decade.
I have also been a working photographer off and on for almost 20 years. Outside of photography my wife and I keep a small garden, a flock of hens for eggs, foster many dogs and love to travel, usually surrounding food & wine related events. I admittedly have a small, yet serious, vintage Italian scooter obsession and I also ride my motorcycle as often as possible.
Dave Vilanova
Rapid Response Engineer
I was born in Warner Robins, GA but grew up in Misawa, Japan and completed High School in Bitburg, Germany. I moved to Colorado in 2005 when my Dad got stationed at Buckley Air Force Base. I got into IT because I have a passion for new technology and find fulfillment in life when I can help fix and solve problems for people. I live with my wife Audrey, our dogs Ozzy and Mowgli, and our ferrets Rosie and Evie!
Greg Moss
Service Desk Engineer
I grew up in a small town in Nebraska surrounded by farmlands but was born in South Dakota and moved around quite a bit in my childhood. I lived in nearly all of the fly-over states! As I was starting High School my Dad, who is a minister, took a call in Denver and moved us all out here. I went to college in Minnesota but returned to Denver in 2008. I’ve had numerous jobs, spending several years as a rural Firefighter, before settling into a career in IT. I play old man softball several times a week and enjoy Fine Arts. I still do many of my own paintings on the side, primarily portraits and landscapes.
Stephen Griffin
Service Desk Engineer
Originally from Mississippi, I was a military brat and traveled way too much. Eventually I settled in Denver because after getting stuck at Denver International Airport for 3 hours all I did was stare at the mountains and dreamed of moving here one day. I made that leap in 2015. I got into a tech career trying to outdo my dad who did ‘communications’ in the Marines, but he still knows more that me! I originally wanted to go to culinary school and although it didn’t work out, I still have a passion for cooking. Fun fact: I shook the hand of Chef Gordon Ramsay when he came to Mississippi for his Hotel Hell show and was even in the episode for 5 seconds!
