I built a fully functional network from the ground up using Cisco Packet Tracer. I added and connected key devices like servers, printers, IP phones, and a facilities technician’s computer. I carefully configured each device and troubleshooted any errors that came up during setup.

Throughout the semester, my team worked together as part of the InfraSec team to build a system for a fictional company that met the CMMC requirements. We designed and implemented services that aligned with security standards to support the company’s operations.

I worked inside an AWS virtual machine as part of a semester project and used the course material to successfully set up a fully functional VM from scratch. I configured it step by step, starting with choosing the right hardware resources such as memory, CPU, and storage based on what was needed at the time. I also implemented basic automation to streamline setup tasks and improve efficiency.
