Helping Seniors Stay Connected, Confident, and Independent

Hello, I'm Christine Meis, founder of Tech & Travel Companion Senior Services.

My passion for helping seniors comes from a lifetime of experience, curiosity, and a genuine desire to help others remain independent and engaged in life.

I grew up in Germany and attended business school, where I was first introduced to computers and basic programming on a Commodore computer. Long before technology became part of everyday life, I was fascinated by learning how things worked and figuring out how to solve problems.

After moving to the United States in 1999, I spent many years working for Hewlett Packard in a variety of positions where technology was an important part of daily life. Along the way, I learned how to solve many computer and technology issues myself and became the person friends and family called whenever they needed help.

Whether it's setting up a smartphone, troubleshooting Wi-Fi, connecting a printer, configuring a smart TV, organizing photos, or setting up smart home devices, I enjoy helping people understand and use technology with confidence.

My connection to seniors runs much deeper than technology. Raised by my grandmother, I have always had a special appreciation for older adults and genuinely enjoy helping them stay connected, confident, and independent.

One of my most meaningful experiences was helping my 88-year-old father-in-law travel through Europe after a stroke. Careful planning, accessibility arrangements, and attention to detail made it possible for him to enjoy experiences he might otherwise have missed.

Tech & Travel Companion Senior Services combines my love of technology, travel, wellness, problem-solving, and helping seniors live life to the fullest.
