IT support and network professional delivering high-uptime solutions through troubleshooting, documentation, and team enablement.
What I'm looking for
I’m a results-driven IT professional with over 15 years of experience in technical support, network administration, and hardware/software prototyping. I focus on delivering high-uptime solutions across industries including healthcare, manufacturing, and aerospace.
In recent roles like Technical ServiceAdvisor and Tier 2 Technical Support Specialist, I provided hardware/software/cloud support, handled service desk operations, and created technical documentation and manuals. I’ve also supported internal help desks, generated serialized product labels, coordinated shipping logistics, and even programmed an AI chatbot pointing to technical manuals.
I’m known as a proven collaborator who streamlines operations and trains teams, using tools like ServiceNow, Jira, Confluence, Salesforce, HubSpot, and QuickBooks. My background also includes hands-on network installs and diagnostics—configuring routers, firewalls, and Ubiquiti networks—plus development and CAD work with Fusion 360, SolidWorks, and AutoCAD.
