Making workplace technology work reliably, securely, and for real people.
11+ years keeping UNDP and Nepal's Judicial Council running. M365, Intune, Windows Server, Active Directory: the unglamorous stuff, done right and written down.
Now: ● ICT Support Executive at UNDP. Happy to talk shop
2014 to now, no shortcuts
Technology should work reliably when people need it. People asking for help should get clear answers. Security is built into regular operations, not treated as an event. Anything worth solving is worth documenting. When something is solved, it is written down, so the next person never starts from scratch.
2014-2017
IT Support Professional — Judicial Council Secretariat, NepalFoundational role close to servers and users: Windows Server 2008 R2, Active Directory accounts and groups, LAN/Wi-Fi/VPN, asset tracking, and technical documentation. Learned outcome thinking: not 'system is working' but 'can people do their jobs?'
