I resolve mission-critical IT and cybersecurity support issues for government and commercial users.
What I'm looking for
I've supported government and commercial users across mission-critical IT environments for more than eight years, resolving issues through phone, email, chat, remote sessions, and ticketing systems.
At Ausgar Technologies, I provide customer and cyber support, perform vulnerability assessments and mock audits, track remediation through FISMA and IAVM directives, and triage SIEM and EDR alerts. I investigate suspicious activity, escalate validated incidents, and support 24x7 operations across multiple time zones.
Previously at SimVentions, I delivered Tier II support to more than 150 end users, resolving Windows, Outlook, Microsoft 365, VPN, and account-access issues. I also supported Windows Server environments, patch management, vulnerability remediation, ACAS, Nessus, and Azure AD identity access management.
Across Bowhead, TEKsystems, and K-Force Government Solutions, I've built customer relationships through clear communication, professional troubleshooting, documentation, and dependable service. I'm focused on making technical issues understandable while helping customers reach a successful resolution.
