MSO Engineer at T-Mobile integrating 5G sites and improving network availability and performance.

At T-Mobile, I work on LTE and 5G site integration, including adding sectors for capacity growth and congestion reduction. I also support 911 validation and site integration.

I test and turn up 10G and 100G links, servers, and cell site routers, and track cell site and AAV availability against market metrics. I also configure IP and VLANs in cell site routers and make STP and SS7 route changes.

At T-Mobile, I lead technician groups supporting failed network element replacements and real-time performance monitoring in the Appalachian area. I also coordinate building maintenance and access with third-party vendors.

Previously, I worked in field support and switching at Samsung / World Star Telecommunications and MetroPCS, including wireless site integration, drive testing, provisioning, and network troubleshooting. My certifications include Anritsu Site Master Line Sweep and Ericsson LTE RBS 6000 Operations & Maintenance.
