IT Systems Administrator

Law

Feb 2021 - Feb 2025 • 4 yrs

Systems administrator for a law practice where confidentiality, uptime, and data integrity were non-negotiable. Managed servers, email, backups, remote access, and endpoint security for legal staff handling sensitive client cases. Built a reputation for clear communication with non-technical colleagues — explaining issues in plain language, in English or Spanish, and keeping systems quietly running so the attorneys could focus on their clients.
