What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that values cybersecurity and offers opportunities for professional growth and development.

I am an experienced IT Support Engineer with over 15 years of expertise in technical support, network infrastructure, and IT systems maintenance, with a growing specialization in cybersecurity. I have successfully resolved high-impact technical issues while identifying and mitigating security vulnerabilities, contributing to a 25% reduction in recurring threats. My proactive support for over 200 users in compliance-driven environments has strengthened system integrity and enhanced cyber resilience through practical, scalable solutions.

Throughout my career, I have demonstrated my ability to bridge technical gaps and improve IT infrastructure. At CH Experience, I handled over 60 technical support tickets weekly, achieving a 95% first-contact resolution rate. My efforts in optimizing workflows and creating standardized resources have significantly reduced ticket handling time and improved team coordination. I am excited to bring my blend of support engineering and cybersecurity insight to a role focused on securing and optimizing critical IT infrastructure.
