Hands-on
Build the machine, trace the cable, inspect the process, and verify what is actually running.
Technology · Systems & support
Systems that stay understandable.
Hands-on PC work, Windows and Ubuntu Linux, data networking, server operations, patient troubleshooting, and practical ways to use AI to optimize everyday workflows.
Open to technology opportunitiesB.S. Information Systems · Senior
Methodical
Separate symptoms from causes, change one thing at a time, and leave evidence behind.
Understandable
Translate technical systems into clear next steps that another person can actually follow.
Capability map
Practical across the stack.
Not a wall of buzzwords—these are the systems Zachary has built, configured, supported, studied, or operated.
Field notes
Troubleshooting with evidence.
Short, privacy-safe examples from real technical work. The point is the method: verify the live system before prescribing the fix.
Relevant experience
Built by doing.
Independent support, coursework, server ownership, and community operations form one connected technology practice.
Windows + Linux
Comfortable fixing more than one kind of computer.
Zachary has built and upgraded custom desktops, installed operating systems and drivers, and configured Ubuntu in a dual-boot laptop environment. That practical range matters when the obvious fix is not the right one.
- Component installs and upgrades
- Windows setup, repair, and recovery
- Ubuntu installation and configuration
- Drivers, peripherals, storage, and software
Education & credential
Formal foundations.
Practical application.
Coursework adds structure to the hands-on systems work: networking, security, databases, systems analysis, and business data communications.
