Building a career in cybersecurity β one lab, one cert, one note at a time. Making the shift to IT, and documenting every step.
I'm SnaxCode β making a deliberate shift into cybersecurity and IT, and documenting every step of the journey. I study hard, build real things, and maintain a living knowledge base that grows with every session.
My background is in analytics β years of working with data, systems, and problem-solving. Now I'm applying that same methodical approach to learning security from the ground up.
I'm actively pursuing certifications, running home lab experiments, and working through CTF challenges. I'm currently enrolled in a formal Information Assurance and Security Certificate program at the University of Phoenix.
Everything I learn goes into the TechOps Vault β a personal Obsidian knowledge base with 239 notes across 12 sections, from fundamentals to medical device security.
A living personal knowledge base β 239 notes across 12 sections. Built in Obsidian and served via a custom web platform. Covers security fundamentals, tools, lab write-ups, CTF methodology, certifications, and more.
Production site on Cloudflare Pages with GitHub auto-deploy β push to main, live in 30 seconds. Vault, resume, and family sections are locked behind Cloudflare Access β email OTP required. Local dev runs on Docker + Nginx via Portainer. Custom domain on Cloudflare Registrar.
Active CTF participation with documented methodology guides for web exploitation, forensics, crypto, reversing, and OSINT. HackTheBox and TryHackMe write-ups maintained in the TechOps Vault.
A real-world crisis simulation game built in React. Take on a role β Citizen, Activist, Scientist, or Peacekeeper β and make decisions across 12 active global crises. Every action has cascading consequences, a D3 world map tracks ripple effects between crises, and inaction has a cost.
Open to conversations about cybersecurity, healthcare IT security, SecOps roles,
and anything at the intersection of security and healthcare systems.
This site is actively maintained β check back as certs are earned and projects ship.
