Living in the heart of Oklahoma means being weather aware.

Unfortunately, wildfires, tornadoes and flooding are not uncommon.

My personal mantra is to “be prepared, not scared.”

Disaster prep includes having a plan to prevent total loss of your irreplaceable memories.

I can help you create a secure 3-2-1 backup system to meet the particular needs of your collection.

Scan physical photos and important documents. That way, even if originals are lost, you still have copies. A high quality scan can be printed and even enlarged.

• Services like Backblaze, and Carbonite will backup all of the files on your computer to the cloud.

• Mylio Photos keeps at least two backup vaults of your photos synced to prevent loss.

• External backups: Keep USB drives or external hard drives in another secure location (like a relative's house or safe deposit box).

For added security, I can help you create a video walk through of each room in your house as well as a visual documentation and a spreadsheet. A comprehensive inventory helps demonstrate the value of your belongings and simplifies the claims process with your insurance company in the event of catastrophic loss.
