What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can utilize my software and hardware experience and contributing as part of a team—ideally in an environment that values professionalism, clear communication, and continuous improvement.

I’m a Records Management Specialist with experience maintaining, compiling, and processing student educational records. I focus on accuracy, organization, and clear communication of procedures.

In my current role at Newport News Public Schools, I use Microsoft Excel, Word, and Outlook alongside specialized systems for transcript requests, digitally archived records, and current student systems. I also ensure compliance with local, state, and federal requirements, including FERPA guidelines.

Before that, I supervised event staff at Christopher Newport University, directing teams of up to 12 using scheduling software to plan setups for events. I also interned in historic services, where I created a digital exhibit cataloging the life and local significance of J. Thomas Newsome and handled archives and records.

I began building a technical foundation through a Technology Intern role, assisting with troubleshooting and maintenance of devices. With certifications including CompTIA A+, I bring both records discipline and practical tech support skills to every project.
