I am an IT professional with over 8 years of experience in resolving client IT issues and maintaining infrastructure. My expertise lies in technical support, system administration, and customer service, which has allowed me to effectively support various IT environments.

Currently, I work as an IT support and maintenance consultant at Edublox Reading and Learning Clinic, where I manage IT infrastructure support for 32 clinics. My role involves configuring and supporting Windows operating systems, administering Microsoft 365, and developing IT support processes. I have also worked in various capacities, including temporary IT officer and junior network administrator, where I provided support to hundreds of users.

I am committed to continuous learning and have recently obtained my Microsoft Certified: Azure Fundamentals certification. I am passionate about leveraging my skills to enhance IT operations and improve user experiences.
