Everyone is talking about ChatGPT and AI — but the hype makes it hard to know where to start. I will sit down with you and show you how to actually use it: safely, confidently, and only for the things that make your life easier. No coding, no jargon.

- Pick the right tool — ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, or Copilot

Safety first: Never share passwords, Social Security numbers, or account numbers with AI tools. I teach you what is safe to type, how to spot AI scams and deepfakes, and how to double-check answers.

About Margaret
I am the founder of Boulder Dash Tech Assist, offering friendly, in-home technology help for busy professionals and retirees right here in Boulder.
If your devices feel more frustrating than helpful, I am here to change that. I come to your home and handle the everyday things that trip people up — setting up a new computer or phone, fixing what is not working, teaching you to use your devices with confidence, and organizing years of photos and files.
My promise is simple: no jargon, no rush, and no judgment.
Many of you already know Boulder Dash from my mobile notary service — same trusted local name, same care, now for your digital life.
What makes this different
- Unhurried & kind — I never rush. We go at your pace, and I explain things as many times as you need.
- Plain language — No tech jargon, no acronyms, no assumptions. I explain things the way a good neighbor would.
- In your home — I come to you. No schlepping your computer to a store, no waiting in line.
Boulder Dash Tech Assist is part of the Boulder Dash family — alongside Boulder Dash Mobile Notary. Same local name you trust, same care and professionalism.
Serving Boulder, North Boulder, South Boulder, Table Mesa, Gunbarrel, Louisville, Lafayette & Superior.

- Is my personal information safe?
