Driven individual transitioning into IT Support/Security.
What I'm looking for
I am a reliable and driven professional looking to transition into IT Support/Security. My diverse background in property, electrical maintenance, and sales has equipped me with a strong foundation in compliance, troubleshooting, and high-pressure service delivery skills. While I am at the beginning of my IT Support journey, I bring strengths in communication, organization, and adaptability.
I am eager to learn and contribute to a forward-thinking team, with the goal of growing into a skilled IT Support/Security professional. Currently, I am self-studying for the CompTIA A+ Certification and enhancing my skills in Python and Linux. I am passionate about technology and committed to becoming a trusted contributor within a professional IT support team.
