I specialize in PowerShell scripting for SCCM/MECM compliance, performance benchmarking, and scalable documentation systems. Fluent in Dutch, English, and Portuguese, I navigate multilingual environments with ease—whether troubleshooting Citrix and RD Gateway or refining knowledge bases for global teams. Even as I approach AOW/pension age, I remain fully engaged in IT, focused on building resilient systems and empowering others through clear, reusable documentation.
