Summary

My name is Charlie and I have worked a vast assortment of jobs ranging from manual labor to management in the health care field. I have acquired an assortment of invaluable skills from the variety of positions I have held over the years and believe I strive to become an asset to any company that gives me the opportunity for employment.


My passion is information technology. I have provided consistent IT related services with my current employer despite my job title not reflecting IT. I have been passionate about computer science since I was a child and spend my free time learning how computers systems / software / infrastructure works and functions.


At my most recent company I was the point of contact for IT related issues as IT issues were outsourced and required roughly 2 business days to be addressed. I have fixed and maintained networking issues, printer / copier issues, coordinated and set up all new hire login 's (Kipu, Slack, Microsoft Outlook) and made it my personal mission to resolve any and all IT related issues.
