I'm looking for a remote role where I can grow at the intersection of technology and people. I thrive in fast-paced environments that value both technical precision and empathy. Long-term, I'm pursuing a Master's in HCI or UX, so I want an opportunity that challenges me and grows with me.

What I'm looking for
Hello!
I'm an Informatics student and IT support professional who believes the best technology is the kind people actually enjoy using, and I've spent 8+ years making sure that's the case. From troubleshooting iOS and Android devices at T-Mobile to imaging 90+ laptops as a Service Desk intern at Everwise Credit Union, I bring a blend of hands-on technical skill and genuine people instinct. In my current role at Saint Joseph Health System, I navigate 200+ insurance plans daily while managing high-volume patient communication, building the kind of precision and composure that translates well into any technical environment. I'm bilingual in English and Spanish, currently completing my B.S. in Informatics at Indiana University, and planning to pursue a Master's in Human-Computer Interaction, User Experience, or Customer Service & Innovation because I want to shape the future of how people interact with technology, not just support it.
