What I'm looking for

I am seeking IT support/help-desk roles where I can apply troubleshooting, Microsoft 365 and networking skills, assist non-technical users, and grow through collaborative teams and continued certifications.

I am an IT Support Specialist with over three years of customer-facing experience and hands-on technical training through the Google IT Support Professional Certificate. I combine technical aptitude with a customer-first approach to solve problems clearly and quickly for non-technical users.

In my roles I handled high-volume support, achieved a 90% customer satisfaction rate, reduced repeat calls by 15%, and maintained 100% accuracy and confidentiality in CAD records. I am skilled with Windows and Linux, Microsoft 365 administration, networking fundamentals (DNS, TCP/IP, VPN), ticketing systems like Spiceworks and CAD, and data security controls.

I take responsibility for clear documentation, escalate appropriately, and enjoy partnering with IT teams to streamline recurring issue resolution. I am pursuing continued certifications and an Associate of Science in Management to expand my technical and leadership contributions.
