About

Tim Hannon

Tim Hannon imageEver since Tim Hannon met his first Macintosh in 1984, he’s been hooked. Skilled in supporting all versions of the Mac operating system and every Mac model, Tim has the rare ability to explain the technical in plain English. He relishes the challenge of a complex problem, yet equally enjoys teaching novice users about application features and keyboard shortcuts that enhance their productivity and efficiency. What’s more, he’ll involve you as much — or as little — as you’d like in the process. Want Tim to come in and just fix the problem? He’ll let you know when you’re back up and running. Prefer to glean insights from his vast knowledge? Then pull up a chair and let him empower you to troubleshoot future situations.

Tim founded Sound Support in 1998 and has over 20 years of experience supporting Macintosh networks. His career started at a K-12 school district in New Jersey and then he lead a team of computer consultants while at the University of Washington. He earned a BA from Brown University in American Civilization. Read his resumé.

On larger projects, or when services outside of his focus are required, Tim collaborates with a network of colleagues who all share the highest level of expertise, dedication and passion for their work.

When not working on Macs, Tim enjoys sailing, running and watching Nova.

Tim is actively growing his business on Whidbey Island. He hopes to attract customers in Clinton, Coupeville, Freeland, Greenbank, Langley and Oak Harbor.

Support Staff

Tim works closely with Ericka O’Cain and Jim Emery. They provide integral support for the operations of Sound Support and monitor our proactive alert system. Each of them has extensive Mac knowledge and can provide you with some quick Mac support by phone, email or remote support. Clients receive messages from them for scheduling, questions, and proactive alert emails.

I highly recommend Tim Hannon of Sound Support.
Tim approaches working with clients with a calm and courteous
competence that removes the anxiety that non-technology-oriented
people like myself have with the increasing reliance on
technology for both personal and work functions, including CAD
software.

Tim is very efficient with his time and his recommendations. It
has been the best value for computer support that I have
experienced. Tim has a balanced strategy of right-sizing the
hardware and software solution for your specific needs and for
the lifespan of the hardware. I was advised in several cases to
not overbuy hardware or software that would not benefit me.
Tim’s kind and patient style of working has made the work
together enjoyable. Several friends and businesses have
recommended Tim over the last 10 years. Now after 4 months of my
transitioning to working with Tim, I would also like to fully
recommend him to others.
