Hello, I'm Olivia Brooks. I am a passionate, hard-working, and dependable individual with an innate interest in sharing and expanding my knowledge and expertise.

For the better part of a decade, I've specced, built, identified and removed bottlenecks, and breathed new life into both desktops and laptops. I have experience with all major operating systems including Linux (which I've daily-driven for 5 years), Windows, MacOS, Android, and iOS.

Over the years, my technical skills have branched to 3D printing, CNC machining, basic CAD modelling, programming, and homelabbing. These interests have garnered me experience with hardware and software from a variety of vendors, architectures, and ecosystems, big and niche.

I have extensive experience in both leadership and non-leadership positions across a variety of contexts. This has allowed me to develop a wide range of skills which I draw upon daily to rapidly develop new understandings. This additionally gives me the capacity to interact and excel in unfamiliar situations and novel endeavours.

I am always willing to lend a hand where I can, no matter the learning curve ahead.

I sincerely appreciate your consideration of me as a candidate, and look forward to hearing from you.
