Mendonsa came to Clare in 2006 as part of a merger between Clare and Golden State Networks, of which he was a co-founder, and has been instrumental in increasing Clare's IT managed services practice, as well as the company's IT consulting business.  He took over as CEO in 2011, and has provided considerable influence on Clare's corporate culture shift from a "breakfix" company to a provider of highly professional, proactive IT support and consulting services.

Lawhorn has been with Clare for over 20 years and has been instrumental in building the business by leveraging his ability to design and deliver a solid service model.  He has served as president for the past eight years and in 2011, added the COO role. A former field engineer, Lawhorn is uniquely qualified to handle the day-to-day operations as well as to guide the company's strategic direction in partnership with Mendonsa.

"We look forward to continuing to deliver world-class IT solutions and service to San Francisco Bay Area businesses," says Lawhorn. "We have an excellent team that ensures that technology goals meet business needs."

"There are many interesting technological trends and innovations we see for 2013 such as virtualization, cloud services, data storage, backup and replication, and we are poised to be leaders in delivering IT solutions in those technologies," says Mendonsa.
