What I'm looking for
I am a final-year Information Science student with a strong foundation in technical support and IT service delivery. My practical experience includes providing first-level technical support, troubleshooting hardware and software issues, and assisting with IT service management. I am proficient in using digital tools like Microsoft 365, Notion, and Slack, which have enhanced my ability to deliver user-focused solutions.
Throughout my internship at Curro Holdings Ltd, I honed my skills in diagnosing and resolving IT issues while collaborating with cross-functional teams to improve service delivery.

I am eager to contribute to innovative IT environments and continuously develop my technical expertise to support organizational goals.
