  Information Technology Field Technician

  I was working on a contract with the Department of Treasury's Office of the Comptroller of Currency on their Computer Refresh. There are many national bank locations under the OCC around the United States and it is my job to go to those sites and assist in the clients' data migration process. I am entrusted with organizing and setting up the computers prior to the conference room deployment in order to make the process more efficient. In the conference room, on the day of the deployment, I work with multiple customers to ensure their data migration goes smoothly. I also provided 1-on-1 support to Bank VIPs and to those who need more assistance. Show less
