Summary

I have worked as a technology support professional for many years and enjoy the challenges and successes that this role brings. My experience has allowed me to be a member of technology teams supporting local and remote offices of more than 500 clients. These environments have been varied and include broadcast television, on-line media, and motion picture production facilities. I have also supported and managed IT initiatives for an international product sales company, and the corporate offices of a California consumer thrift and loan. My goal is to analyze technical requirements in order to implement solutions that are not only effective, but focus on communication and provide a maximum in client satisfaction.
