About DVRK Group
Your Local
Bay Area IT Partner
Founded to bring enterprise-grade IT services to Bay Area small businesses and nonprofits. We believe every organization deserves reliable, secure technology—without the enterprise price tag.
Our Story
Built for Organizations Like Yours
I've spent the last 15 years in IT and security—mostly hands-on with startups and small organizations, with time at a public company and a Fortune-500 enterprise along the way.
Along the way I kept seeing the same gap: small businesses and nonprofits deserve the same security and reliability that big companies take for granted, but the options are either national MSPs selling cookie-cutter contracts or generalists who don't go deep on security. I started DVRK Group to close that gap.
DVRK Group is founder-led and growing deliberately. Right now that means you work directly with me—the engineer actually doing the work—and I'm hands-on with every client. I already run IT and AI enablement for an Oakland nonprofit, so this isn't theoretical; it's what I do.
Enterprise-grade engineering, delivered personally and priced for your budget. That's the whole idea.

Our Mission
Technology That Empowers Your Mission
We exist to remove technology barriers for small organizations. When your IT works seamlessly, you can focus on what matters most—serving your customers, advancing your mission, and growing your impact.
Security First
Every recommendation, every implementation starts with security. We build protection into everything, not bolt it on afterward.
Transparent Pricing
No hidden fees, no surprise invoices. Clear pricing published upfront so you can budget with confidence and make informed decisions.
Local Accountability
We're part of the Bay Area community. When you need help, you reach a real person who knows your business—not a call center.
Right-Sized Solutions
Technology should fit your organization, not the other way around. We recommend what you need—nothing more, nothing less.
Local Presence

We're not a remote-only operation or a national chain with a Bay Area address. We live here, work here, and are invested in the success of local businesses and organizations.
From San Francisco startups to East Bay nonprofits, Peninsula small businesses to Marin professional services firms—we provide responsive on-site support when you need it and efficient remote support when that's more practical.
