Objective
To apply my six years of network architecture and engineering experience toward designing networks that will improve operational proficiency and reduce total costs of organization. I am seeking a challenging technical position in a pleasant working environment, which will permit me to continue practicing and expanding my skill set and knowledge base. As a result of my developed analytical problem solving skills and ability to learn new tasks and concept abstractions quickly, I am also willing to accept a position in an exciting new field that I have not yet had the opportunity to work in.
