Aseem Kishore is the founder and CEO of AK Internet Consulting, Inc., an umbrella company that own Online Tech Tips, Help Desk Geek, The Back Room Tech and Switching to Mac. He’s been blogging since 2007, when he started his first site, Online Tech Tips, on Google’s Blogger.com as a way to document all the issues he was troubleshooting while working in IT.
Within 6 months and posting hundreds of articles, traffic jumped and suddenly the blog became a viable way to earn a living. Aseem poured his energy to this new pursuit in his spare time and after writing well over 3,000 articles himself, he was able to quit his job in 2010 and pursue blogging full time.
Aseem has a background in computer science and mathematics and was a programmer, network administrator, systems administrator, systems analyst and data analyst during his decade-long career in Information Technology. He worked at a DNA-testing facility and helped the lab reduce errors and improve sample processing times.
Currently, Aseem has hired excellent people to manage the sites while he pursues other interests in video blogging and spending time with his wife and two kids.
