Summary

I’m a hands-on Technical Consultant with real-world experience helping people get the most out of their technology—whether it’s fixing hardware, improving system performance, or walking someone through a new tool until it clicks. At Target, I helped teams adopt new tech smoothly and kept everything running behind the scenes. I’ve led training sessions, handled both remote and in-person support, and worked closely with users to solve problems fast and effectively. I take pride in being reliable, detail-oriented, and someone people can count on when things go sideways.
