Mentored by Michael La and Alex Dinh, I strengthened my customer communication skills and developed practical troubleshooting expertise. I’m grateful to work with Michael to bring successful projects to life, combining IT consulting with marketing initiatives that deliver real value to clients. Along the way, I’ve had the opportunity to lead and initiate major projects, including organizing and delivering a vendor‑client event focused on AI and cybersecurity.”
