I was the system engineer on several major projects for TPG while working at their Managed Service Provider (AdTech-IT). When TPG created their own IT department, I was recruited to help design and facilitate IT growth in the company. When I started as the second department member in July 2020, we had 20 locations and 400 employees. My first initiative was to establish a well-rounded foundation for the IT department and to provide technical assistance for improvement of IT solutions. I was directly responsible for implementing a ticketing system and RMM (Remote Monitoring Management) software, backup and disaster recovery, and system patching. I developed all written policies and procedures, conducted interviews to grow the department, and oversaw helpdesk training for new team members. Before being promoted to the IT Operations Manager position with TPG, I was the acting Help Desk Manager with 3 team members supporting the company as it had grown to 60 locations and 1,200 employees.
