How We Started

How We Started

Your Computer Tutor began from an inspired moment in June, 2008.
Denise Rivas’ grandmother “Gaga,” then 86, had just visited her, and the two had spent much of the visit reviewing how to make the best use of Gaga’s various gadgets – the camera, cell phone, Kindle, and computer. Denise had just relocated from Florida to Denver with 20 years’ experience in corporate information systems and software training. Up to that point, Denise had always channeled her passion for “better living through technology” toward friends and family, serving as a technology resource and troubleshooter whenever needed. It was time to make use of what came naturally, and Your Computer Tutor​ was formed.

“Gaga” continued using her iPad until her passing at age 99 in late 2020.

Denise and her family moved back to Florida in April, 2020. Your Computer Tutor continues to serve clients all over the country, from our new home in the West Palm Beach area.
