Sven van Rooij
Executive Director
Sven van Rooij’s passion for technology started early.  Growing up in Germany, he first learned about computers from his father, an IBM employee who occasionally brought equipment home from work.  Sven began building his own machines as a teenager, combining pieces from broken computers to make functional ones.  By the time he was 20, he turned his hobby into a business and started a computer consulting company.  After earning a master of science in electrical engineering and information technology from the Technical University of Munich, Sven eventually came to the United States and settled in Carmel.  He founded Digital Carmel Consulting in the late 1990s and continues to oversee business operations while also serving clients on a daily basis.  Sven has built his professional reputation on his technical knowledge, efficiency and genuine enthusiasm for serving others.
