Cover Letter:

As a seasoned Electronics Engineer level II/III technician and support specialist of over 30 years including IT manager, call center support supervisor and advanced sales experience with hardware software support, I am particularly talented in establishing protocols and procedures in the QA field including establishing a Q. A. department to benefit the company's quality services to it's customers. I troubleshoot and repair down to component level electronics, support clients via remote and on the phone and do not hesitate to offer hands-on training to coworkers to perform at their best and promote their own successes.

I am an all around knowledgeable individual in the information technology field with a vast knowledge in setting up computers, peripherals, wired and wireless networks, troubleshoot and debug problem areas without need of supervision. I pay special attention to servers and their software environment no matter if it is a MS Server, VM-ware, or a Linux/Unix based systems.

Not only am I an expert in all Windows based operating systems, but also indulge myself in alternative operating systems and correct any problem that may arise from such. I not only enjoy challenges in IT based components, VM-ware and other middle-ware, but also have the expertise in lay-out and hooking up the cat5 and other cables needed for networks and advanced communication devices.
