About
I’m an IT Systems Administration student at the Northern Alberta Institute of Technology (NAIT), where I’m building a solid foundation in the systems and infrastructure that keep organizations running.
My interest in technology started with a curiosity about how computers and networks actually work under the hood. Now I’m turning that curiosity into a career — learning hands-on skills in networking, server management, scripting, and cybersecurity.
Outside the lab, I enjoy gaming, drumming and learning about AI. I’m always looking for new ways to apply what I’ve learned and take on practical challenges.
