\"Tania<\/p>\n

As the Network Infrastructure Lead, I am responsible for the physical network infrastructure – overseeing both wired and wireless connectivity across all Imperial campuses. My primary responsibility is to ensure that the university infrastructure is well-designed to meet its evolving needs in the long term.<\/p>\n

“The brilliant support from my colleagues and the nurturing and collaborative culture at Imperial have been instrumental in propelling me to where I am today.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

How did I get here?<\/h2>\n

I arrived in the UK at 18 with the goal of learning English, which it turns out is a lifelong pursuit?<\/p>\n

I studied Electronics and Telecommunication Engineering and began my career in the telecoms industry, where I initially worked as a Network Planning Engineer.<\/p>\n

Later, I joined NTT Communications (a private telecommunications company) and entered the world of data centres, where I managed colocation sites across Europe.<\/p>\n

\"TaniaAfter taking a short career break to have kids, I then ventured into uncharted territory and established my own caf\u00e9 and catering business. What began as a “lifestyle” venture to fit in with the family, soon grew into a successful operation, which I eventually sold.<\/p>\n

I always had the intention to go back to the tech industry and continue with my career once my children were more independent, and that is how I moved over to Imperial nine years ago.<\/p>\n

When I first joined the Network Infrastructure Team, I encountered a steep learning curve and the challenge of balancing work and my ever-growing family commitments. However, the brilliant support from my colleagues and the nurturing and collaborative culture at Imperial have been instrumental in propelling me to where I am today!<\/p>\n

My future aspirations<\/h2>\n

\"TaniaI am excited to be involved in implementing the next-generation Wi-Fi connectivity at Imperial, which is crucial for the development of a cutting-edge digital campus.<\/p>\n

My aspirations revolve around leveraging technology to enrich education and foster a seamless connectivity experience across the university for both students and staff.<\/p>\n

My advice<\/h2>\n

Embrace challenges and be open to new opportunities, even if they seem unfamiliar.<\/p>\n
