Summary

I am an IT Support professional with a passion for creating positive client experiences. My background is in client relations and technical troubleshooting, but I am always looking for new ways where I can be of service to an organization. Tenacity, leadership by example, and taking on responsibilities without needing to be asked are qualities I've been told are my greatest strengths, and what I would love to bring to your organization!

Why

My Why: Support is what I do. Working each day to support my team and my customers is a service to something greater than myself. I strive to do my job well, both as a form of self-improvement, and as the best way I know to the improve the world around me.
