I hope local small businesses and organizations will take advantage of Office 365 to advance their goals by utilizing low-cost, enterprise-class productivity tools traditionally reserved for big companies,” Reed added.


Jennifer Reed is married to Snohomish-born Rick Reed, a retired Hawaii state senator and president of Cloud611, a local company offering web design and development services, strategic social media consulting, and small business cloud solutions using Microsoft technologies.
