I'm currently pursuing my AAS in Information Technology at Laramie County Community College. I'm actively working toward industry certifications while expanding my knowledge of servers, networking, and datacenter infrastructure. My goal is to become a Datacenter Specialist. Outside of school, I enjoy working on personal projects that let me explore creative solutions and sharpen my skills.

About Me

PROJECTS

Track Sync
October 2021—Present Day

Developed in Python, Track Sync is an app designed to manage dedicated servers for video games played by my online community. It allows users to start, stop, and restart servers with ease, ensuring smooth gameplay.

Metadata Cataloging & Displaying Platform (MCDP)
January 2020—Present Day

MCDP is a personal versatile tool for systematically logging and organizing a wide range of data and their associated metadata. Initially focused on images and tags, it has evolved into a comprehensive personal journal, offering a sophisticated approach to data management and analysis.

Small-Scale Home Server
June 2025—Present Day

To support my personal projects and gain full control over data storage and deployment, I've built a home server setup using two HP ProLiant Gen8 DL380 machines. One server is dedicated to hosting Track Sync, the management system I built for running game servers used by my online community. The second is going to be configured as a self-hosted backup file server, giving me a private, centralized location for long-term storage and archival.

This infrastructure will integrate directly with the Metadata Cataloging & Displaying Platform (MCDP). All files passed through MCDP—images, audio, video, journals—are stored on the server, encrypted before transit to maintain data security. This connection allows me to control both the interface and the backend pipeline from input to long-term storage, without relying on third-party cloud services.

Gnarly Corners Railroad (GCR)
October 2021—Present Day

Gnarly Corners Railroad (GCR) is a community-driven hub for train enthusiasts—centered around multiplayer games like Railroader and Railroads Online, but expanded into model railroading, rail fanning, and locomotive history. What began as a niche game server has grown into a broader space for hobbyists to connect, share, and explore their interest in trains through both virtual and real-world mediums.

What sets GCR apart is its technical backbone: all dedicated game servers are fully managed and deployed through Track Sync, a system I built to provide on-demand control over multiplayer environments in games that don't originally support it. This allows GCR members to launch, manage, and interact with servers in real time, without relying on third-party hosts or manual setup.

The community continues to grow through a focused Discord server of over 100 members, offering a persistent, welcoming space for collaboration and creativity across gaming and railroading interests.
