Andrew Hollis
IT Consultant & Systems Administrator
My career in technology began long before it was a career — seated at a keyboard, navigating Microsoft DOS one command at a time. From there, I followed the evolution of the Windows platform through its pivotal decades, while developing an equally deep fluency in macOS — the platform that would ultimately lead me into the world of creative professionals.
That crossover proved formative. The media and entertainment industry runs on both ecosystems simultaneously, and understanding each from the inside out became a defining professional advantage. Where others saw a platform divide, I saw an opportunity to serve as the connective tissue between technical infrastructure and the artists, editors, and producers who depend on it.
Today, with over a decade of experience supporting M&E environments, I specialize in the infrastructure that keeps creative pipelines moving — from editorial and VFX workstations to render farms, shared storage, and large-scale data delivery. In this industry, downtime isn't just an inconvenience — it's a production risk.
