The Journey

How I found my way into IT.

Home Lab Catalyst

My home lab started with an OPNSense router, an Unraid server, and a lot of trial and error. It helped me realize I loved IT and taught me the practical troubleshooting, networking, and systems skills I needed to start a career.

Executive IT Support

I provided dedicated Windows and systems support for the C-Suite of a multi-billion dollar insurance company.

Systems Administrator at UIC

I support enterprise applications at institutional scale, including Canvas, vendor coordination, documentation, help desk workflow improvement, and people management.

Master's in MIS (Fall 2026)

I am beginning a Master's in Management Information Systems to connect infrastructure work, business process, and technical leadership.
