Summary
I make sure your IT infrastructure runs reliably, your business applications are used efficiently and securely by employees, and new technologies are evaluated, procured, and introduced professionally.
I draw on my many years of experience in IT with Windows platforms, my IT-specific training, and my skills as a system engineer, administrator, and second/third level supporter.
I'm used to working independently and reliably at a high-quality level and gladly take the initiative when tasks arise.
I enjoy working with people and can communicate clearly and effectively.
