// currently: IS student, homelab tinkerer
I like taking systems apart to see how they work.
Information Systems student, mostly into networking and security. This site's a running log of what I've built — some finished, some still very much in progress.

A bit about me
IS student at UMBC leaning into networking and security, learning mostly by building things and then figuring out why they broke.

All projectsHome Lab Infrastructure
My main hands-on environment — a physical box running Proxmox, with an Ubuntu Server VM on top and Tailscale set up so I can reach it remotely without opening any ports to the internet.
Network Security Roadmap
Where I'm headed next: OPNsense as the firewall, VLANs to actually segment traffic, and keeping remote access on a separate track from the security controls.
Hotel Management Database
A group project for my database systems class — a PL/SQL system loosely modeled on how a hotel chain might handle reservations.
