I provided daily technical support to both public and internal personnel. I managed a public and private facing LAN and wore many hats including upgrade planning, troubleshooting, documentation, installation, consultation, C# and Python programming, budgeting, reports, data entry, network automation, web design, and provide classes to both public and private groups. I also managed a network of volunteers. Over the years in that position, I saved the company and individual users thousands of dollars each year in technical upgrades, essential software, and helped root out non-essential business expenses. I helped increase the security of our stored data and met the needs of the business often without having to outsource any expensive assistance. I rebuilt the network from scratch and built up a more organized and automated administrative control and upgraded the physical infrastructure. I have been repeatedly recognized for my contributions to the welfare of the company and community.
