Donald Story
Remote-ready support engineer who gets to root cause fast

I’m an IT/telecom professional with 20+ years in support and implementation environments. I’m strongest at networking fundamentals (DNS/TCP/IP/Wi-Fi), calm escalation handling, and automation that removes repetitive work and prevents repeat incidents.

About

I translate messy real-world problems into a short list of tests, check logs, validate assumptions, and communicate clearly while things are on fire. I like building small tools that make teams faster and customers happier.

Core skills
  • Networking: TCP/IP, DNS, DHCP, routing basics, VLAN concepts, Wi-Fi troubleshooting
  • Linux: services, logs, permissions, systemd, SSH
  • Web basics: Apache, TLS basics, performance and uptime fundamentals
  • Support: escalation handling, empathetic writing, documentation
Strengths you’ll notice fast
  • Clear status updates while troubleshooting (no panic, no fluff)
  • Finding the “one thing” that explains multiple symptoms
  • Automation mindset: fix the root cause, not just the ticket
  • Comfortable learning new platforms via docs + testing
