Meet the team
No call centers, no rotating contractors. When you work with Applied Micro, you work with these folks.
President
A UW–Platteville business management grad, Tricia joined Applied Micro in 2003 and became owner on January 1, 2025. She runs operations across both offices, handles the books, and still dives into repairs when the bench gets busy. Off the clock: golf, family, and friends.
Network Engineer
Our lead network engineer since 2013, Matt is the one with his head in the latest tech blog. He designs, builds and watches over the business networks we support. Spare time goes to his two sons, cars, the outdoors, and friends of the human and canine variety.
Service Technician
Wes holds Southwest Tech degrees in network support and electro-mechanical technology plus a computer support diploma. He has been our primary bench technician in Platteville since 2013. At home: video games, his wife and daughter, and Lilo the puppy.
Service Technician
A Dodgeville High grad with us since 2014, Joe runs the Dodgeville office: PC service, remote assistance, and onsite support for homes and businesses. When he is not at a keyboard he is on a golf course, cheering on Wisconsin, or impatiently waiting for winter to end.
Founder
Kip co-founded Applied Micro in 1993, bought out his partners in 2007, and led the company for 16 years before handing the keys to Tricia in 2025. He still stops in often — golf, tennis, maple syrup, and lake days permitting.
