What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that allows me to leverage my multimedia and IT skills while contributing to creative projects in a collaborative environment.

I am a dedicated multimedia specialist with a strong foundation in video production and IT support. Graduating from an intensive IT program, I earned the Google IT Support Professional Certificate, which equipped me with essential skills in troubleshooting, customer service, and systems administration. My 5+ years of experience in customer-facing roles have honed my communication and client management abilities, allowing me to effectively collaborate with diverse teams.

Currently, I work as a Multimedia Specialist II, where I assist attorneys by setting up media equipment and editing videos for court presentations. My previous roles, including Certified Behavioral Technician and Multimedia Studio Director, have further developed my skills in time management, problem-solving, and technical support. I take pride in my ability to deliver high-quality content and maintain strong working relationships, which has led to numerous awards for my contributions in multimedia projects.
