About me
I am an IT professional with four years of experience in IT support and system administration. My journey began on the Helpdesk, working as a contractor for the European Commission, where I developed core skills in user support via phone and email, ticketing systems, and Office 365 troubleshooting. Before transitioning into IT, I worked as a logistics team leader, which strengthened my problem-solving, communication, and leadership skills. Four years ago, I successfully moved into the IT sector and have since gained diverse experience, particularly in Windows Server administration, networking, virtualization, and cloud technologies. I am passionate about continuously expanding my expertise and delivering practical IT solutions that make a real impact.
