   Helen Gallagher  
Bio
Helen Gallagher enjoyed a long corporate career in executive positions at Jim Beam Brands, Envirodyne Industries, and Ameritech, (AT&T) until 1996. She then launched Computer Clarity, a software consulting and training business in Glenview, Illinois.

At a time when people most needed a little help getting started with computers and the Internet, she began personal, customized training and teaching workshops to bridge the gap between people and technology.  Although Chicago based, her work takes her to Arizona, Michigan, Missouri, and the west coast. Today, her thriving consulting practice is augmented by her writing on business and technology, with over 100 articles in major buisness and trade publications. She is also the author of Computer Ease, selected by Forbes.com Book Club. Her book also won a state award from the Illinois Women's Press Association in 2006.

She acts as a Publishing Advisor to clients who want to fulfill their desires to publish their books.

Topics

Groups of any size are appropriate, and some presentations are best with an LCD projector for demonstration.

Technology topics, as presented to business and writing groups include:
