About Me

Bridging on-premises systems with the cloud

IT Support Engineer and System Administrator with 2+ years of hands-on enterprise experience delivering end-user technical support and administering Windows Server, Active Directory and Microsoft 365. A strong troubleshooter with communication skills sharpened over five years of academic teaching.

Beyond IT, I spent five years as a university assistant lecturer in electronics and telecommunications — training 100+ students and supervising hands-on labs. That background makes me an effective communicator, trainer and documenter in any support or administration role.

Telecommunications Engineering graduate completing an M.Sc. in IT (Networks) at the thesis stage, with a documented portfolio of Windows and Azure infrastructure projects on GitHub. Based in Riyadh and available to start immediately.
