IT & Cybersecurity Student  ·  Aspiring Infrastructure Engineer  ·  USMC Network Administrator (MOS 0631)

I’m Nate, an IT student in the Cincinnati area who builds real infrastructure. I run a Proxmox cluster and a rebuilt enterprise storage server at home, and I serve as a Network Administrator in the Marine Corps Reserve. Most of what I know came from breaking something in the lab and then having to fix it.

Open to part-time IT and infrastructure roles in the Cincinnati area while I finish my degrees, on the way to a career in infrastructure and network engineering.

Currently building out a Proxmox cluster and parity-protected storage · studying for the CCNA, with Security+ and RHCSA next · mapping the U.S. National Parks (15/63)

On my own time

Chasing the U.S. National Parks

When I’m not in the lab I’m usually on a trail. I’m working my way through all 63 national parks. Here’s the map so far.
