When I was a child, I would incessantly play video games for hours until I could beat a certain level, gain a new power-up ability, or defeat a particular villain. Even though the thought throwing my game out the window crossed my mind many times, I kept my eyes on the prize and never gave up. That’s the person I am. Once I put my mind to something, I will set out to achieve it. While I no longer own the gaming console I once had as a kid, I still carry the same tenacity, determination, and inquisitiveness today. My goal is to be the best at what I do. Aside from my main passion, I love to exercise and stay active. In my free time, you can find me improving an old recipe, catching up on a good movie or TV show, watching the latest Chicago sports game, and hanging out with friends and family.From a very young age, I have been very enthusiastic about technology and aspire to acquire many more IT skills. I am a student who constantly keeps learning. I have learned various technology and IT skills from my previous jobs, working as a Repair Technician and an Integration Technician, and I plan on continuing to learn more about software development to pursue a degree in the future. My skills include troubleshooting, debugging, software testing, technical support, and exquisite soft skills. Just as in video games, I can play well with others. Having collaborated with several people throughout my educational and work experience, I am able to work alongside any person or group of people to reach a collective goal. I am an excellent addition to any team and will motivate myself and those around me to get the job done no matter what.
