About Us

Who created Transform 42?

Hello I’m Joe Crist the founder of Transform 42, I’ve dedicated my life to serving others from my 14 years in the U.S Military to the IT and Management Consulting space for over a decade. Working for top companies from Deloitte to Lockheed Martin solving some of the toughest information technology challenges that businesses face.

From helping accountants by setting up ERPs to track finances to developing and implementing emerging technologies to create a competitive edge. While working for these firms I saw a trend, most companies have to pay a premium to get top tier talent to help turn challenges into opportunities . I decided to change that with T42.
