What I'm looking for

With a Bachelor’s degree in Information and Computer Technology and multiple industry certifications, including Security+ and Kubernetes Administration, I bring a solid foundation of knowledge and practical skills to the table.

In my current role as an IT Support Specialist at Teledyne Technologies, I have led IT operations across multiple classified and unclassified locations, ensuring 100% network uptime through proactive monitoring and rapid incident resolution.
