What I'm looking for

I seek hands-on IT/support roles in security or field service that leverage surveillance installation, networking, and troubleshooting while offering growth and stable team collaboration.

I am an IT support technician with hands-on experience installing and maintaining surveillance and low-voltage security systems for commercial and residential clients. I combine practical field service work with troubleshooting expertise across hardware, Windows and Linux systems, and network fundamentals.

My background includes completing the Google IT Support Professional Certificate and an intensive NPower IT Support Specialist program, which reinforced CompTIA-aligned skills in A+, ITF+, and practical microprojects. In field roles I have performed installations, repairs, upgrades, and daily data collection and reporting using tools such as Google Sheets.

I bring security-industry experience from mobile patrol and armed security roles, where I monitored surveillance systems, responded to incidents, prepared incident reports, and coordinated with emergency services. I seek to apply my technical and security operations experience to support reliable IT and security infrastructure.
