• Continuously develop, document and refine AV processes and support models to enhance the user experience and service quality.
• Stay ahead of emerging technologies and AV trends, bringing forward new ideas and innovative solutions.

• Proficiency in Windows and Mac operating systems and ability to troubleshoot both
• Experience supporting AV office buildouts.
