Tanya is a team member who holds expertise in chat support.
I'm in a doubt specifically about whether it should have 'the' in place of 'a'. Feel free to notify other mistakes as well.

Tanya is the team member who holds expertise in chat support very strongly suggests that Tanya is the only team member with that expertise while Tanya is a team member who holds expertise in chat support suggests that other team members may have the same expertise.
The whole sentence is a little clunky, though syntactically acceptable and (save for the/a) entirely clear. I'd prefer the simple has to holds, perhaps Tanya is the team member who has expertise in chat support.

There is no suggestion to me with a that other team members have the same expertise – only that Tanya has it. The others are not commented upon at all; they may all have the same expertise, or none of them may have it.
