About

I’m an IT professional and trainee IT assistant with hands-on experience supporting end-user hardware/software, maintaining core IT infrastructure, and monitoring network security and performance. I enjoy working through technical issues quickly to minimize downtime, and I’m comfortable collaborating with teams during system upgrades and installations.

I also have a strong learning mindset—currently studying for my Bachelor of Information Technology—and I’ve built a foundation with server, networking, and hardware support skills. In addition, I’ve developed web applications and practical projects using applied AI concepts and problem-solving tools, while communicating confidently in Tamil, English, and Sinhala.
