Information Technology

As a seasoned Professional Support Network Engineer, I thrive on solving complex networking challenges and delivering top-tier technical support. My journey began with a hands-on approach to configuring routers and switches, and it has evolved into a passion for architecting scalable, secure, and reliable network solutions. Over the years, I've developed a deep understanding of multi-vendor environments and thrive in fast-paced, 24/7 production settings. My goal is to not only troubleshoot and resolve issues quickly but also to implement proactive strategies that prevent problems before they impact the business.
