This site is an independent project of mine that started as an excercise in VM management, web hosting, and networking. It's become a bit of a creative outlet for me, and has the goal of being a more robust and accessible portfolio of my work.
This site's primary goal is ease of navigation and accessibility- ideally serving as a hypertext résumé.
The secondary goal of the site is to serve as a public facing entrance towards my personal web servers and machines. (Coming soon...)

I am an engineering student at Virginia Commonwealth University - set to graduate May 2026. I am majoring in computer science and minoring in artificial intelligence.
I've been interested in toying with computers my entire life, and have always been my family's domestic IT guy. I'm particularly interested in servers, distributed systems, networking, and VM machines and deployment. I am an avid Linux/BSD user, primarily using Arch as a daily driver and FreeBSD for servers. I'm also a big fan of ASCII art.
Other Activities:
I recently finished a summer internship at the Virginia Spaceport Authority working in the IT Department. I worked closely with our system administrators and network engineer. You can see the work I did there over on my Portfolio page.
These are a few of my favorite things:
