What I'm looking for

Seeking a challenging role in a collaborative environment that values innovation and teamwork, focusing on network security, cloud technologies, and emerging network solutions.

As a seasoned Systems Engineer and Network Administrator, I bring over a decade of experience in managing complex network architectures, ensuring robust security protocols, and leading projects to successful completion. My current role at Advanced Network & Computer Services has honed my skills in project management, where I plan, execute, and close projects efficiently while maintaining stakeholder communication.

My technical expertise spans designing and troubleshooting network solutions, working with both private and government security standards, and staying updated on emerging technologies. I also have a strong background in client management, providing technical guidance and support to ensure satisfaction and project success.

Beyond my technical skills, I served in the United States Army as a Combat Engineer, where I developed strong problem-solving abilities and a strategic mindset. My education includes Associates degrees in Computer Science and Network Engineering, complemented by certifications like CCNA Security and Secret Clearance.
