Summary

I am a customer centric individual who recently completed certification courses in COMPTIA’s A+, NET+, and SEC+, that’s looking to utilizing new skillsets in the information technology field. I am someone who will never stop working until the job is done. I will never give up on a job nor a customer. I am great at resolving issues while keeping customers calm in the same motion. I am great with people and can get anyone through anything. I have been in the customer service industry my entire adult life. l believe that there is always an answer for everything to satisfy all parties involved and will do my best to always get to that ending. I've worked with certain systems within computers, and I've built a few from scratch to get to know the ins and outs of them. I'm very easy to teach, very willing to learn, and always excited to be taught something new.
