SUMMARY
As a professional helpdesk and desktop support technician what I bring to every job is a good personality and upbeat attitude to my clients. Patience and compassion is a virtue to clients who have little or no knowledge of their PC’s software and hardware. I understand that keeping my clients informed of what changes and services I am doing on their pc is greatly appreciated. This positive attitude also keeps the clients on the side of the technology department.
