What I'm looking for

I seek a hands-on IT role focused on systems administration, security, and user support where I can improve uptime, streamline operations, and mentor junior staff.

I am an experienced IT Support Specialist with over seven years delivering end-user support, system administration, and application support across multi-site and distributed environments. I have a strong track record improving resolution times, enforcing security controls (Azure AD, Google Workspace, MFA), and reducing downtime through process improvements and documentation.

I have led account lifecycle management, network and server troubleshooting, SaaS and cloud administration, and integrations that cut downtime and accelerated operations; notable achievements include 98% user satisfaction, 30% faster resolution times, 25% reduction in downtime, and 40% reduced network downtime. I bring proactive problem-solving, clear communication, and a commitment to secure, scalable IT operations.
