Summary

Currently residing in the tech industry where I continue to better my craft each day by consuming as much knowledge as I can. I pride myself in customer service and taking care of people where their needs need to be met the most. From the paint industry to the tech field, I always find myself needing to resolve an issue for a customer, manager, teacher, or district employee. Regardless, I'm serving these individuals with a good attitude and accommodating them with the tools they need to excel.
