Heezen Elises
@elisesha
I lead service desks and troubleshoot network deployments, customer support, and IT operations.
What I'm looking for
I am an experienced IT and customer service professional with more than 20 years of experience across technical support, service desk operations, IT infrastructure, customer service management, and team leadership. I started my career in software development and education before moving into technical support and IT operations, where I developed a strong foundation in troubleshooting, networking, systems administration, and customer service.
Throughout my career, I have held roles including Service Desk Lead, Customer Service Manager, Technical Manager, First Line Manager, Technical Team Lead, System Administrator, and IT Support Specialist. I have led teams, managed service desk operations, developed staffing and training plans, handled performance management, maintained IT assets, and worked with internal and external stakeholders to improve service delivery.
In my current work supporting hotel network deployments, I focus on gateway rollouts, guest Wi-Fi, captive portals, PMS integrations, network configuration, troubleshooting, and coordinating between vendors, field technicians, and stakeholders.
I am particularly interested in IT service management, networking, technical support, automation, and developing high-performing teams. I enjoy troubleshooting complex problems, improving processes, learning new technologies, and helping both customers and team members succeed. My goal is to continue growing in a leadership or senior IT role where I can combine my technical background, customer-service experience, and leadership skills to improve operations and deliver excellent service.
