I am an IT support professional with a background of providing exceptional customer service to internal and external customers. Able to listen and resolve software issues from a customer’s perspective and then work closely with developers to influence enhancements. Tracking all customer problems and comments using widely known applications, such as JIRA and Peregrine can result in understanding issues leading to solutions to enhance your product. I have trained and mentored customers on our internally developed software at LIVEALITY to help them meet major milestones to produce their Yearbook on time. Volunteered at our small company to develop and implement internal office procedures, applications and hardware.
