I am a Network Administrator and academic leader with 7 years of experience driving technical infrastructure and higher education programs in Somaliland. Holding dual master’s degrees, I specialize in bridging the gap between theoretical computer networking and market-ready skills through cloud architecture training and curriculum design. I have led faculty operations and supervised research to modernize lab infrastructure, directly enhancing institutional capacity and technical excellence. I am now seeking to leverage my expertise in systems administration and academic leadership to drive digital transformation and career readiness within a global technical organization.
