What I'm looking for
Dedicated IT Service Desk Analyst with 2+ years of experience supporting large-scale enterprise environments. Strong diagnostic skills and empathetic communication enabled 95% first-contact resolution. Certified in Cybersecurity (ISC2) with foundational expertise in AWS, Azure, and process improvement. Skilled at turning technical knowledge into practical solutions that boost user satisfaction and efficiency.
I hold ISC2 Certified in Cybersecurity and foundational cloud knowledge (Azure Fundamentals, AWS Educate), and I delivered Tier 1 support to 8,000+ users using Ivanti, ServiceNow, Active Directory, and Microsoft 365 while consistently meeting SLA targets.
I built AWS-hosted applications, completed SQL projects, and designed basic vulnerability assessment labs as part of independent training, while contributing to KB improvements that reduced repeat inquiries by 18%.
After a short health-related leave where I focused on certifications and skill growth, I am ready to return to the workforce and apply my blend of technical troubleshooting, customer success, and process improvement to help teams drive efficiency and long-term client loyalty.
