What I'm looking for

I seek a dynamic IT role where I can apply my technical skills and contribute to security initiatives.

I am a dedicated IT professional with a strong background in technical support and security. My experience includes working as a Technical Support Specialist at the Cobb County Sheriff’s Department, where I honed my skills in troubleshooting hardware and software issues, managing IT systems, and ensuring network security. My ability to identify technical problems and implement effective solutions has been a key asset in my career.

In addition to my technical expertise, I have a solid foundation in leadership from my time as an Aviation Boatswain Mate in the United States Army. This role taught me the importance of teamwork, discipline, and the ability to perform under pressure. I am passionate about leveraging my skills to protect organizations from security breaches and improve their IT infrastructure.
