With over a decade of experience in Microsoft services and products, I commenced my career as a support engineer, specializing in troubleshooting and resolving customer issues related to: 1. SharePoint 2. Exchange Online 3. Exchange migration 4. Active Directory dirsync issues 5. Calling systems in Microsoft Teams 6. All Microsoft applications Subsequently, I transitioned to freelancing, securing my first project on Upwork in 2018. I collaborated closely with a single client for over 7 years, during which I experienced significant professional growth. I became a subject matter expert, particularly in SharePoint Online and Exchange Online. I proactively developed documentation and self-help tools for new joiners, often serving as the primary resource for training others on program procedures. Eventually, I was appointed as the onboarding personnel, where I managed: 1. Account provisioning 2. Account offboarding 3. New hire coordination 4. New hire training I was typically the first point of contact for new joiners, setting the tone for their success within the organization. As the organization expanded from fewer than 100 to over 600 freelancers, the necessity for an internal IT team became evident to address tooling issues and serve as the first responders for freelancers experiencing technical difficulties. The tools utilized for customer interaction included: 1. Azure Virtual Desktop 2. Quick Assist 3. Several internal tools that remain confidential. In recent years, the organization peaked at approximately 849 employees. At this juncture, I established a support process/service desk framework, which encompassed: 1. A platform for issue submission 2. A dashboard for monitoring issue status 3. Automated follow-ups 4. Service level agreements based on request urgency 5. Power BI reporting to provide management with insights on areas for improvement and to engage the engineering team. I led a team of 6 site administrators responsible for: 1. Resolving day-to-day tooling issues for freelancers 2. Account provisioning and offboarding 3. Process changes and creation 4. Access-related concerns 5. Infrastructure outlines 6. SharePoint Online management 7. Communication management.

Small businesses don't have time for IT problems — and they shouldn't have to. I help small business owners offload the complexity of their IT infrastructure so they can focus on running their business, not troubleshooting it. With over 10 years of hands-on experience, I provide end-to-end IT support across cloud, networking, and systems administration — from a single urgent fix to ongoing managed support. Cloud Migration & M365 Administration I handle complete Google Workspace to Microsoft 365 migrations (and vice versa) — mailboxes, calendars, contacts, and shared drives — with zero data loss and minimal disruption to your team. Post-migration, I can stay on to manage your M365 tenant, user accounts, licensing, and security policies so everything keeps running smoothly. Network Setup & Security I design and deploy reliable business networks using UniFi, configure secure remote access via WireGuard/Headscale VPN, and set up enterprise Wi-Fi — built to handle real workloads without dropping out. Whether you're moving offices or setting up from scratch, I get it done right the first time. Cloud Infrastructure (Azure / AWS) From provisioning virtual machines and managing cloud storage to configuring networking and databases, I keep your cloud environment lean, secure, and cost-efficient. I've deployed and maintained infrastructure for businesses across manufacturing, real estate, and professional services. IT Support & Helpdesk I provide dependable remote and onsite support across Windows, macOS, and Linux — using RMM tools and ticketing systems like Freshdesk to resolve issues fast and keep your team productive. Think of me as your on-call IT department without the overhead of a full-time hire. Credentials & Background Google IT Support Professional Certificate | Diploma in Information Technology Fluent in English, Hindi, Gujarati, and Swahili — great for diverse or globally distributed teams. Based in Calgary, MST — available for both one-time projects and long-term contracts. If your business needs reliable IT that just works, let's connect.
