Computer Science at UW–MilwaukeeCompTIA Security+
I'm the IT administrator for Ehlert Welding, a five-person welding company in Byron, WI. I take care of Microsoft 365, email, DNS, the company website, and whatever goes wrong with the computers and printers.
At home I run a Proxmox lab where I practice Active Directory administration and security logging.
I graduate in May 2029 and I'm looking for a Summer 2027 IT or cybersecurity internship.
