OBJECTIVE

I aspire for a warm and inspirational career where I may pursue my passion for the Information

Technology field, bringing an extensive amount of experience, a solid work ethic, and an instinct

to excel and be a part of the finest.

SUMMARY OF QUALIFICATIONS

Resourceful Computer Support Specialist

I possess a natural insight when it comes to resolving potential crises, and this helps to offer

magnificent customer service in a Help Desk environment. With a continuous escalation of

experience in all versions of Microsoft Windows since Windows 95, I have built a strong database

of knowledge with these OS’s, to include Mac OSX as well. I am fluently versed in MS DOS

Commands, HKey and Windows Registry, and am extremely efficient with all Microsoft Office

Products.

Articulate Systems Repair Technician

I pride myself in a strong work ethic, and patience when faced with technical issues, which helps

me to offer a very astringent and thorough regime to ensure that proper maintenance and repair

procedures have been carried out. I view a rejuvenated system, peripheral, or component as

finished art, a reflection not only of my integrity as a technician, but as a person as well. This has

driven me to immerse myself in the application of this branch, which has rewarded me with a

cornucopia of skills of this nature: PC/Mac Desktop/Laptop diagnosis, maintenance, and repair.

CMOS/BIOS Configuration, HDD reimaging, software load/test, upgrade/build.

Vigilant Network Security Enforcement

I studied hard in college to do well in this, the emphasis of my degree, and I don’t plan on letting

that go to waste. I was fortunate to have some of the best Instructors the Silicon Valley has to

offer in the Networking/Security subfields: Topology, IP, TCP/IP, UDP, IP Address/Subnet Protocol,

Hex/Binary Conversion, Data Backup and Disaster Recovery
