What I'm looking for
I am a diligent IT analyst with extensive hands-on experience supporting end users, hardware, and enterprise platforms.

I assisted with the conversion from Google Apps to Office 365 and Azure and configured multifactor authentication for users.
I have administered Salesforce (Classic and Lightning) as an administrator, implemented and configured infrastructure, and provided troubleshooting for POS systems and device imaging/deployment. I also support Windows 10/11 and Mac iOS, mobile devices with MDM, and network equipment including routers, firewalls, and switches.
I have led small teams, assisted with onboarding and quality control, and reported to IT management while working with Linux, PHP, MySQL, JavaScript and SAS for data tasks.
