What I'm looking for

I’m seeking hands-on IT infrastructure or support roles where I can design and maintain networks, security systems, and cabling in a collaborative, standards-driven environment.

I am a highly dependable and versatile Information and Communication Technology (ICT) Technician with ten years of hands-on experience in computer maintenance, structured cabling, networking, and system integration. I specialize in diagnosing, installing, and maintaining security, telecommunication, and IT infrastructure including CCTV, biometrics, PBX, and LAN/WAN systems.

Throughout my career I have led installations and configurations for robust, network-integrated security and communication projects, managed large-scale Cat 6 and RG59 cable structuring, deployed point-to-point wireless links using Ubiquity devices, and configured NVRs for remote IP camera access. I also provide hardware assembly, upgrades, and frontline IT support across Microsoft, iOS, and Linux environments.

I bring strong organizational skills, technical endurance, and autonomous problem-solving to deliver stable, standards-compliant infrastructure and improve operational communications for clients. I am eager to contribute immediate value in a dynamic IT support or infrastructure role.
