PDA Doctor for your Personal Digital Archive

Precious assets used to be physical.
Now they are more often digital.
Let me help you organize & safeguard them.

PJ Dougherty, the PDA Doctor, can help with your digital work, personal & legacy files.

I have presented self-help strategies to artists and film-makers, now I can do it for you. I will (remotely) meet you where you are and tailor a situation-specific solution. E-mail me at mail@pda-doctor dot com with your phone # for a free 20 minute consultation.

Via phone, e-mail, Zoom or TeamViewer… we’ll work together however you’d like. For more about me and the services I offer, please go to the respective pages (links upper right).

The goal is to have physical and intellectual control of your files making them easily accessible and discoverable
