I am a seasoned Systems Administrator, AI Trainer, and techpreneur with over 15 years delivering technology solutions that improve efficiency and drive innovation. I design and deliver AI literacy and productivity training, integrate generative AI tools into workflows, and manage end-to-end system administration across Windows and Linux environments.
