S6E6: Tate Talks - With Theresia Joseph, Tavanca
During this talk with Theresia we learned about her journey to Tavanca in Canada via her homeland of Germany and Australia. We spoke about her new puppy and I instigated the twice yearly conversation about Daylight Savings Time.
Hope you enjoy it!
About Theresia
Theresia Joseph can’t stand to see people struggle at the hands of failing technology. Before she founded TAVANCA, a Vancouver-based managed services provider, Theresia was a medical assistant at a practice outside of Berlin, Germany. She witnessed how gaps in technology support affected the workflow of hospital staff and the livelihood of the patients they were committed to helping. Patients depend on technology. EKGs, heart monitors and other devices track vital data and translate it into beneficial measurements that impact patients' quality of life, even providing life-saving results. But while working in the medical practice, Theresia noticed that several computers needed updates, new software, or vital backups. “I wanted to make sure all the updates were running smoothly and there were no security issues. It breaks my heart to see people wait on care if technology doesn’t work,” says Theresia.
Being the go-to IT technician on her medical team was not part of her job description, but for her, it was as natural a process as taking care of her patients.
Theresia’s Top Areas of Expertise
• Cyber Crime and IT Security
• Security Awareness Training
• Microsoft 365
• Google Workspace and Google Platform
• AWS
• VoIP
• Disaster Recovery
• macOS, Windows, Linux
Theresia has helped dozens of businesses across British Columbia protect against attacks before they happen with her unique proprietary process for working with clients. She’s worked with clients in countries around the world and is a highly sought-after speaker. She has more than 10 years of experience in information technology and has earned a degree from FOM University of Applied Sciences for Economics and Management, Frankfurt, Germany.
