Marine veteran. IT professional. 8+ years of experience and most of it earned the hard way — in a fast-paced environment where you either adapt or fall behind. I got my start in the Corps as a Data Systems Administrator and haven’t stopped learning since.

These days I work as a sysadmin with my sights set on cybersecurity. Currently working toward a B.S. in Cybersecurity and Information Assurance while building out a homelab that’s taught me more than any classroom has.

This site is a knowledge base, a blog, and a personal portfolio rolled into one. I built it to document my work, share what I’ve learned, and maybe save someone else a few hours of troubleshooting. If you’re a beginner trying to figure out where to start, an IT professional looking to level up, or just someone who stumbled in from a search — there’s probably something here for you.

Everything on this site is stuff I’ve actually built, broken, and fixed myself. No fluff.
