Confidential
- Supervised, developed, and inspired a team with accountability for meeting department goals.
- Maintained a database of over 11 million unique digital assets, using scripting techniques to automate the ingest of data from websites, xml feeds, spreadsheets, word docs, and pdfs. This was entirely manual data entry when I started, but I have kept pushing for more efficiency in the process, to the point where this is now approaching 80 automation.
- Set up new PC's, installing supplemental RAM, new video cards, connecting monitors, mouse, keyboard, and installing drivers, security updates, and necessary software from a library of disk images.

- Used Active Directory to manage domain and user accounts for my subordinates, applying and updating passwords and lockout conditions, as well as establishing corporate email accounts.
- When I started, all incoming data was printed and distributed by hand. I helped devise a system using shared Outlook inboxes to track and process everything, to allow for a paper free work environment, saving time, desk space, trees, and over 50,000 a year.
- Provided first level software and hardware troubleshooting and technical support for staff, including account lockouts, registry errors, driver troubles, automation scripting errors, email connectivity, start-up errors, printer troubles, and network connectivity problems, including wireless.
- Configured VPN with Cisco AnyConnect, so that staff with corporate laptops could access the internal network securely from home.
- Established intercontinental conference and video calls, including use of pc-connected projectors, cameras, microphones, and speakers.
