About
Hi, I’m Michael Sheridan, owner and lead technician at Maven Computers. After many years servicing Lake Macquarie, I packed up and headed inland for a change of pace and scenery. Jindabyne won me over—not just for the mountain air and ski runs, but for the tight-knit vibe and neighbours who look out for each other. That’s the kind of service I believe in at Maven Computers. We focus exclusively on home users because families deserve straightforward, patient IT support. Whether you’re dealing with a slow laptop, a virus outbreak, data loss, or just need someone to walk you through a tech problem, I deliver friendly, no-judgement help right to your doorstep. No corporate jargon. No call centres. Just honest, skilled support from someone who now calls this community home.
