Who is Mac Guru?

A portrait of Mac Guru

Computers can be scary. Modern life expects you to know them like second nature. But the truth is, most people don’t venture beyond their web browser. You have better things to do with your life than figure out the intricacies of a computer interface. I can help you with that.

I’m Christian Gove. I have been tinkering and repairing Macs since an early age, but took this interest to a professional level when I became the primary Mac technican for the UCLA Design computer lab. Since then, everywhere I work, I earn a reputation as the go-to guy for help with Macs. Quite simply, I know what works and what doesn’t. If your Mac stops doing what you expect, I’ll have the answer for you. I’ll work tirelessly to put it back in your hands in better condition than ever.

Macs are known to work very well on their own, but so few of us really know how to use them to their full advantage. I research new applications and their features every day to push my Macs to their fullest potential. I use this experience to give you the confidence you need to make your Mac work for you.
