Dedicated technician with experience in IT and maintenance roles.
What I'm looking for
I am a dedicated technician with a diverse background in IT and maintenance roles. My journey began with hands-on experience in appliance repair and general labor, where I developed a strong work ethic and a commitment to quality service. I have worked in various capacities, including as a Utility at Milwaukee Catholic Home, where I honed my skills in general maintenance, IT support, and customer service.
Most recently, I served as a Card Reader Technician for FIS Global, where I was responsible for programming and repairing card reader terminals. My technical skills are complemented by my ongoing education in Cyber Security, where I have completed courses in programming, coding, and networking. I am currently pursuing additional IT certifications to further enhance my expertise.
