I have been working For Apex systems contracted to Microsoft as a data center technician since January. I have been helping assist the team here during their deployment stages of two buildings. I have been working with the team learning the Microsoft standard that is required when working in the colos and troubleshooting tickets. I have been assisting in many aspects of the job here such as:

• Moved and installed shelves, power strips, rails, servers, switches and other equipment.
• Dressed and labeled cables for easy identification and traceability.
• Identified and reported problem devices and replaced defective parts.
• Recorded received products into database using asset tags information, product manufacturer, model and serial number.
• Conducted inventory control and reported stock or receiving discrepancies identified when comparing inventory records with physical items or received products and packing slip.
• Entered device locations and cable connections into database.
• Coordinated with vendors to help get them what they need and to make sure they are keeping on tract.

I worked mostly on the structure side of the job, building and installing, the racks, cable trays, basket trays, and infrastructure for them to go on. I have been apart of multiple teams that runs, dresses, plugs-in, tests, splices and troubleshoots fiber. After a year at IES I was promoted to tech 2 and started to take more leadership roles there. Around October 2024 I was promoted to a crew lead and was leading the team on buildout. I worked with engineers to help build plans for the building as well.

I worked at Hodgmans flooring company for two summers (2017, 2018). I became a full time employee between May 2019 to May 2021. I worked in the field as a floor technician, tearing up, prepping, and installing the new flooring. I also worked in the warehouse, unloading and loading trucks. I was responsible for sorting and arranging material in the warehouse. I delivered material from the warehouse to job sites and other warehouse locations in a company van/truck.
