Next Legacy wasn’t born in a boardroom. It was built out of frustration and conviction.
As longtime IT leaders, we saw too many good businesses being underserved. Vendors said yes to everything and delivered nothing. Support teams patched problems but never solved them. And too often, tech became a bottleneck instead of a business driver.
We knew there had to be a better way. So we created it.
Next Legacy exists to flip the script. We’re here to build what works with strategy, automation, AI, and security baked in from the start. We’re not interested in flashy dashboards or fear-based selling. We care about clarity. Follow-through. And helping real people solve real problems with confidence.
We’re both grounded in faith, family, and Midwest grit. We believe technology should serve people, not the other way around. And we’re building a company that proves you don’t have to settle…not for bad support, not for reactive fixes, and not for IT that just gets in the way.
This is more than our business. It’s our legacy.

Co-Founders, Next Legacy IT
Meet The Team
We are a security-first Managed Service Provider (MSP) dedicated to protecting and empowering small to mid-sized businesses (SMBs) across Northwest Indiana and the Chicagoland area. By combining advanced technology, strategic expertise, and client-focused service, Next Legacy IT ensures businesses remain secure, connected, and positioned for growth .
Frank Brown founded Next Legacy IT with a clear conviction: business owners deserve IT partners who do more than show up when something breaks. After years of seeing companies underserved as a Virtual CIO, and watching too many teams struggle behind smoke and mirrors, Frank launched a company that puts integrity, clarity, and follow-through first.
A devoted husband, father, and Christian, Frank brings a grounded perspective to technology leadership. He believes IT should help people flourish, not just fix problems. That means designing systems that make work smoother, automating what slows you down, and giving teams the tools to do their best work. If you ask Frank what gets him out of bed in the morning, it’s helping a business transform IT from a cost center into a growth engine.
Frank’s leadership style is optimistic, energetic, and rooted in purpose. Whether he’s building automation playbooks or coaching a client’s team, he brings high standards with a light-hearted tone (he’s not above a dad joke). When he’s not leading the charge at Next Legacy, you’ll find him biking, lifting, or on the softball field. He’s been married to his best friend for over 20 years and is a proud dad of three, who he’ll gladly beat at board games or outdoor games. Frank also serves on his church’s tech team and in leadership circles like Legacy Leadership Forum and GAP Men’s Ministry.
I’ve spent my whole life in “The Region,” with the last 26 years in Valpo. After earning my Electrical Engineering degree from Purdue, I started out as an Automation Engineer at a local steel mill—but I didn’t stay in the corporate lane long. My curiosity for advanced tech (and my inability to sit still) pulled me into IT, entrepreneurship, and eventually co-owning a local IT firm for nearly two decades.
Having already built and run an MSP, and later serving as an enterprise vCIO consultant, I’ve seen every flavor of IT strategy—good, bad, and wildly overcomplicated. What I’ve learned is simple: most businesses are underserved by outdated models, bloated tools, and vendors who say yes to everything but deliver very little. That’s never been me.
I’m wired to speak plainly, solve real problems, and do what’s right—even if it’s not what someone wants to hear. That mindset is what led me to partner with Frank Brown and co-found Next Legacy IT. We saw the same gap in the market and felt the same pull to do something better—for our clients, our community, and the future of IT.
Next Legacy is about building something that actually works. It’s about automation, AI, and strategy—not sticker shock and empty dashboards. It’s about service that’s grounded, transparent, and built on mutual respect.
Outside of work, I’m a Purdue grad who somehow became a Michigan fan (yes, it’s confusing), a ‘67 Camaro enthusiast, an animal rescue volunteer, and full-time sidekick to my sweet, stubborn pitbull, Asher. Through all of life’s detours, my Faith’s kept me grounded—and led me right back to where I’m supposed to be.
Here. Building this.
