Summary

Senior Systems Administrator and Team Leader with 25 years of experience in the IT sector in Belgium.

I have strong expertise across a wide range of technologies, including VMware, Microsoft Server, Active Directory, scripting, Exchange, Veeam, as well as various infrastructure, virtualization and backup solutions.

Certified in ITIL and PRINCE2 Foundation, I work with structured methodologies focused on service quality, documentation and change management. I also hold EU Secret and NATO Secret security clearances.

I support organisations in designing, managing and securing their infrastructures, whether on‑premises or cloud‑hosted, and I deploy solutions for e‑mail, backups, virtual machines and remote desktops, ensuring the performance, stability and continuity of their systems.
