Projects
These projects reflect my transition from manufacturing into IT infrastructure and data center operations. My focus is on building practical knowledge, improving technical communication, and developing a strong long-term foundation in infrastructure work.
Professional Website Project
I built and continue to improve this website as a personal project using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. The goal is to present my background, skills, and career direction clearly in a simple and maintainable format.
- Built as a static website with multiple pages
- Focused on clean structure, readability, and maintainability
- Used as a practical project to strengthen basic web and documentation skills
CCNA and Networking Study
I am continuing structured study of networking fundamentals at the CCNA level. This includes building understanding of core topics such as IP addressing, subnetting, routing, switching, VLANs, and troubleshooting.
- Ongoing self-study focused on practical infrastructure knowledge
- Developing stronger understanding of networking concepts relevant to data center environments
- Using study and review as part of long-term preparation for infrastructure roles
Data Center Operations Study
I have been studying the operational concepts used in modern data center environments in order to better understand how large-scale infrastructure is managed and maintained.
- Learning concepts such as rack layout, redundancy models (N+1), and physical infrastructure organization
- Studying operational workflows including tickets, incidents, changes, and remote hands support
- Developing familiarity with the terminology and processes used in data center environments
Independent IT Exploration
As part of my transition into IT, I explored multiple areas including networking, cloud, Linux, and web fundamentals in order to better understand where my strengths and long-term interests fit best. Through this process, I became most interested in infrastructure and operations-focused work.
- Studied a range of IT topics to build broad foundational understanding
- Used self-directed learning to identify infrastructure and networking as the best long-term fit
- Developed a more focused direction toward data center and operational roles
