$ cat about.me

I'm studying CIS & Cybersecurity at Western Michigan University, with hands-on experience as an IT Technician at WMU's College of Arts and Science Technology Services. Outside of academics, I'm involved with WRAVEN (OSINT Team), the Developers Club (Systems Team), and the Data Science & AI Club (Vice President).

I have both technical and administrative experience which made me adaptable to new challenges and a fast learner. Out of work I'm a regular gamer who loves MMORPGs the most, currently obsessed with Path of Exile 2!
