significantly expanded its base of talented employees and grown its
customer base. Serenity Systems' Founder and CEO Mark Leary will join

The Aldridge Company is special because its team shares our passion and
reputation for quality and service," said Leary. "With The Aldridge
Company, our customers will have access to the technology expertise and
the services they need to succeed in an increasingly complex and
competitive business environment."

The Aldridge Company provides a broad range of IT management services,
