Robert Perry

Service Desk Manager

Robert currently lives in Florida with his wife and son. He was born in Indiana and moved to Michigan a year later, where he lived for the next 32 years. He studied Computer Information Systems and earned 2 Associates degrees. In his younger years, he loved disassembling computers and putting them back together. This opened up the curiosity for wanting to do more things with technology. So he started learning how to program with different kinds of code. Robert has always liked being in the service industry as helping others has always been a true passion for him.

While previously working at Geek Squad for 5 years, Robert started at a customer service position. He was then promoted to Consultations, then to Advanced Repair, and then to Geek Squad Manager. He finished with Geek Squad doing Field Technician work in residential homes.

Robert loves all sports, but specifically Michigan Wolverines football and basketball. He also loves to play poker. But since his son was born, Robert has put all family activities such as hiking, going to festivals, and playing baseball with his son and wife at the top.

Matt Crosby

IT Coordinator

Matt has joined the Akamai Systems team as IT coordinator. He helps management and techs with equipment procurement, sales and customer order tracking. He also assists with light IT work; building PCs or helping to install systems for clients.

Matt grew up around computers. His mom is a computer scientist at the University of Hawaii. He remembers the days of punch cards, 5-inch floppy disks and 4-foot server hard disks from 1965 that would hold a staggering 4MB. He studied graphic design and has worked for companies like King Soopers, Domino’s and D&K Printing. Previous IT experience includes working as Tier 1 tech support for Apple iPhone and America Online.

Matt feels one of his biggest accomplishment was when he worked as a graphic designer and had to manage a large print job that had 20,000 copies with 64 pages per book. It took only a week from setting up the files, to printing and binding, before it was ready for delivery.

Matt strongly believes the needs of the clients come first. His number one responsibility, as tech support, is to solve problems for the client as quickly and thoroughly as possible, with the least amount of interference.
For five years, he was a soccer coach for B-Elite and Skyline. He had the honor of working with coaches from Barcelona, one of the best clubs in the world. That was an experience he will never forget! It was also a great way to keep in shape and have fun on the weekends. Now, he stays in shape and has fun by going biking and doing yard work.

Jax

Team Mascot

Jax is the Akamai team’s loyal mascot. He joined the Akamai team in the summer of 2013 and is especially good at alerting us when there is a delivery as well as being a great companion at the office.

Before joining Akamai he had an unknown past. He was found wandering by DIA and put into the Denver Animal Shelter. He ran out of time there and was taken in by Evergreen Animal Protective League. Again, he ran out of time but was taken in by a foster family for a week before he rescued us.

Jax loves to spend time with his pack, fetch balls, sleep, go on hikes, and is happy to clean up any leftovers from dinner.
