I use analytics to monitor team performance, ensuring high service levels and continuous improvement. I conduct quarterly system audits to verify proper user access and compliance, and I manage the procurement, deployment, and ongoing maintenance of 200+ mobile devices, along with overseeing the wireless network using Cisco Meraki for seamless operations. I manage and maintain 70+ virtual machines running Windows Server 2019 and Linux environments using VMware, ensuring system stability and optimal performance. I utilize Active Directory to create users and apply Group Policies to enforce correct domain access and security protocols. In collaboration with upper management, I develop, continually update, and maintain our disaster recovery plan, ensuring it aligns with industry standards and adapts to changes in our network environment and cybersecurity landscape. This proactive approach strengthens our organization's preparedness for disruptions and enhances our overall security posture.
