What I'm looking for
I am an experienced IT Support Specialist and Systems Technician with a strong background in streamlining IT support and enhancing system integrity.

Throughout my career, I have developed a robust skill set in system administration, security protocols, and programming fundamentals. My time in the United States Navy has honed my ability to manage complex IT systems and provide technical training to diverse teams. I have successfully maintained digital records for thousands of items and have overseen significant asset procurement and lifecycle management, ensuring compliance and information integrity at all times.
As I continue my education in Computer Information Technology, I am eager to leverage my skills and certifications, including CompTIA Security+, Network+, and A+, to contribute to a forward-thinking organization.
