Primarily in a troubleshooting role for routing and switching, and setting up networks for new locations as well as setting standards and templates for networking gear. Learned how to quickly isolate and resolve network related issues, and worked on external and internal DNS infrastructure (VitalQIP and now Infoblox and F5 GTM). Firm grasp of DNS from work experience and from setting up a personal in-home Bind 9 server during this time. Furthered knowledge of Cisco internetworking, wireless, voice and Cisco firewalls during personal time by taking additional classes (some via Cisco Network Academy). Performed additional labs at home between DSL and cable connections to further solidify understanding of site-to-site IPsec tunnels and gain additional troubleshooting experience.

Quickly learned the job and demonstrated good customer service and excelled at resolving calls on first contact rather than passing to another tier. Maintained a pleasant and patient attitude even when working with some less than cooperative end users.

Assisted with troubleshooting general network and PC related issues and worked on an as-needed basis. Helped to migrate them from their on-prem server to Office 365 for better security and redundancy.

Really wanted to give back by teaching others who were eager to learn. Took this job as a night instructor and taught a Network+ course and had plans to teach Security+ thereafter. Wish I could have taught more there but new governmental regulations for tech schools at the time meant doubling my hours at night after my normal day job.
