What I'm looking for

Seeking a challenging role in IT that leverages my technical skills in cloud administration and systems analysis to drive innovation and growth.

As a dedicated technical analyst with a strong foundation in computer information systems, I bring a unique blend of technical expertise and analytical thinking to every challenge. My professional journey began at CGI Federal, where I serve as a Consultant and Technical Analyst, focusing on addressing client issues, ensuring compliance through vulnerability patching, and developing environments using Ansible, Azure, and OpenShift.

My academic background includes a B.B.A. in Computer Information Systems from James Madison University, where I honed my skills in database design, programming, and cloud server management. I am certified in CompTIA Security+ CE, underscoring my commitment to cybersecurity best practices.

Complementing my technical prowess, I am passionate about contributing to my community, having volunteered with Phi Kappa Psi, participating in philanthropic events that raised over $3,000 for charitable causes. I am eager to leverage my skills and experiences to drive innovation and deliver impactful solutions in a dynamic IT environment.
