Meet Chrissi

Technology has always been part of my life—but helping people feel comfortable using it is what I enjoy most.

I’m Chrissi Jackson, founder of Simply Savvy Tech. While studying Industrial Engineering at Northwestern University, I taught continuing-education classes in DOS and Lotus 1-2-3 through Chicago-area park districts. The tools have changed considerably since then, but I still love the moment when something that seemed intimidating suddenly begins to click.

Over the years, I’ve built businesses, managed complex operations, supported leaders and families, and coached people one-on-one through the technology they use every day.

I’ve seen that the hardest part usually isn’t the technology itself. It’s having someone explain it clearly, without jargon or judgment, and help you connect it to something you actually want to do.

Today, I lead practical, welcoming classes and workshops that help people use AI and everyday technology for the things that matter: planning a trip, organizing an idea, communicating more easily, solving a problem, or simply feeling more confident with the tools in front of them.

You don’t need to become a “tech person.” You just need a good place to start.
