The Hearts Behind It All

Paresh Rana

Founder and Chief Technologist

Growing up in South Africa, Paresh has had his hands on technology since the mid 1980s, building computers and adding amps to his Walkman. In high school, he built and sold computers to college students. By the time Paresh reached college, he quickly recognized that he had more real-world experience than college courses were able to teach him. Out of boredom, he left college and got his first job in corporate IT at the age of 19. He worked his way up from Software Support Specialist to Systems Integrator in South Africa, and eventually his firm transferred him to Denver where he worked as the IT Director for several years.

With an aptitude for growth and challenges, Paresh left corporate to start his own IT company in 2009. Today DilSe.IT delivers a portfolio of IT solutions and services designed for small and medium-sized businesses including: data center hosting, network infrastructure services, productivity applications such as email, calendar and collaboration, surveillance camera systems, PA/sound systems, VOIP phone systems, and VPN/firewall services.

Paresh is a firm believer in open-source platforms that make leading-edge technologies affordable and accessible to small and medium-sized businesses. Paresh named his company Dil Se which means “with love” in the Hindi language. The company embodies Paresh’s personal commitment to implementing technology solutions with love and care in a way that enables companies to serve their communities.  At DilSe.IT we believe business is personal.
