About me
I am an IT and cybersecurity professional with experience managing 250+ endpoints across multiple clients while maintaining performance, stability, and security. I have led cybersecurity initiatives, implemented endpoint protection and firewall controls, and helped reduce vulnerabilities through regular audits and assessments.
I have a strong background in IT operations, documentation, and support process improvement. I enjoy building efficient systems, automating routine tasks, and creating clear documentation that improves knowledge sharing and operational consistency.
My experience also includes customer-facing roles, where I developed strong communication, problem-solving, and service skills. I have worked in call center, transportation, retail, and banking environments, which strengthened my ability to stay calm under pressure and support people effectively.
Overall, I bring a mix of technical operations, cybersecurity, customer service, and digital marketing experience. I am focused on delivering reliable IT solutions, improving security posture, and supporting business goals through practical, efficient technology management.
