IT infrastructure professional specializing in endpoint lifecycle, cloud operations, and IT service management.
What I'm looking for
I’m an IT infrastructure professional with 8+ years of experience specializing in endpoint lifecycle management, cloud operations, and IT service management. I’ve built scalable solutions across manufacturing, federal, and consulting environments, and I’m known for bridging the gap between technical teams and business stakeholders.
Most recently as an IT Subject Matter Expert II, I automated operational reporting by building live ServiceNow dashboards and performance analytics to eliminate manual data collection and provide real-time visibility. I also standardized endpoint deployment workflows to streamline hardware imaging, testing, and deployment across diverse configurations, while managing endpoint lifecycle reporting to optimize allocation, tracking, and utilization.
Previously, as an Advanced Support Specialist, I engineered endpoint management solutions using SCCM and Microsoft Intune, automating patch deployment, configuration management, and compliance reporting across 500+ endpoints. I resolved complex L2/L3 infrastructure issues involving Active Directory, networking, and system integration, and I used PowerShell automation scripts to reduce manual intervention and improve operational efficiency.
Earlier in my career, I led infrastructure modernization—migrating 50+ endpoints and servers to Windows Server 2019 and Windows 10, performing VMware virtual machine migrations, and strengthening security and stability. As an Owner / IT Consultant, I delivered managed IT services, designed client network infrastructures, and filled specialized resource gaps in infrastructure projects and migrations.
