1995
Superpower acquired. Spent hours exploring MS-DOS, early Windows, and basic programming. I may have played a game or two.
1997
Given internet access. Research mode activated — and never really stopped.
1999
Started hacking and soldering gaming consoles — early proof that curiosity beats manuals.
2000+
Became the official (unpaid) IT department for friends and family. Built a reputation one rescue at a time.
2005
Built my first PC with graduation money. Every component hand-picked, every cable managed.
2009
Volunteered with Comcast restoring communications after Hurricane Ike hit Houston. Learned how to rewire the world under pressure.
2000–2020
20+ years diagnosing Windows, networking, and hardware nightmares most people gave up on.
2024
Intensive self-study through TryHackMe, KC7, daily labs, and hands-on red/blue team exercises.
2025
Currently pursuing AAS in AI Engineering, merging security expertise with intelligent systems.
Tools and technologies I work with
Open to collaboration on security research, AI projects, and creative tech ventures.
