I am finishing this degree as a Graduate Research Assistant in the Computer and Information Science Department, with a 3.95/4.00 GPA and coursework centered on cloud computing, cybersecurity, networking, distributed systems, and analytics.
This is where I built the engineering foundation behind my networking, systems, communications, and infrastructure security work.
I completed my college-level science preparation here before moving into engineering studies.
This is where my early foundation in mathematics, science, and disciplined technical study started.
I support IT systems, platforms, and business applications for daily operations, administer and monitor network infrastructure to resolve incidents before they reach end users, and manage endpoint protection, access control, and firewall policy enforcement. I also pilot automation workflows that route routine helpdesk requests to cut manual ticket handling, deliver on-site support, and maintain network diagrams, SOPs, and runbooks.
I work on secure data-transmission optimization, real-time traffic flow models, and enterprise network defense ideas while writing first-author and co-authored security publications under faculty supervision.
I delivered 15+ practical cybersecurity labs covering network defense, firewall configuration, threat detection, vulnerability management, and real-world security operations workflows.
I administered Linux and Windows server environments, Active Directory, mail platforms, IP-PBX systems, monitoring, and LAN/WAN upgrades that supported 500+ enterprise users across multiple departments.
I supported 100+ enterprise accounts across Cisco, MikroTik, Juniper, Fortinet, and Cyberoam environments, handling firewall policy management, NAT, ACLs, VPN tunnels, load balancing, failover, and incident troubleshooting.
Job Market Positioning
Physical and Cloud Infrastructure Security
My job-market profile comes from 7+ years of hands-on work across ISP networking, enterprise IT, physical network infrastructure, Linux and Windows server administration, firewall operations, VPN, Active Directory, mail systems, IP-PBX, and cloud-supported production environments. What strengthens that foundation now is the research work I have added in serverless security, Zero Trust, AI-driven threat detection, federated intelligence, and cross-cloud infrastructure protection.
I fit best in Network Security Engineer, Systems Administrator, Cloud Infrastructure Engineer, Infrastructure Security Engineer, and Cybersecurity Analyst roles.
I like taking research ideas into practical engineering through serverless firewall architecture, Zero Trust security, federated threat intelligence, secure automation, and AI-assisted infrastructure defense.
Most of my day-to-day range sits across LAN/WAN, routing and switching, firewalls, VPN, mail systems, Active Directory, Windows Server, Linux administration, VoIP, and hybrid cloud operations.
Physical Network Infrastructure
I learned this work in real ISP and enterprise environments where uptime, secure connectivity, and operational stability mattered every day.
Security Engineering
I have done this work in production environments through firewall policy management, segmented access design, incident troubleshooting, and security-first administration.
Hybrid Infrastructure Operations
I have supported business-critical infrastructure across on-premise systems and cloud-connected environments with a strong focus on reliability, administration quality, and service continuity.
Research and Automation
I use research to extend my industry profile, especially where cloud infrastructure security, deployable engineering, and software-supported defense workflows start to overlap.
Role Alignment
Applied Intelligence and Workflow Design
This section covers the AI engineering work I do alongside my infrastructure and security career. It spans prompt engineering, model training and evaluation, end-to-end AI project development, and intelligent workflow automation using platforms like n8n and OpenClaw.
AI Engineering Overview
My AI work sits at the intersection of prompt engineering, model training, project deployment, and automation platform design. I have built self-correcting LLM pipelines, multi-agent distributed AI systems, serverless AI-driven firewalls, and workflow automation platforms using n8n. This is grounded in published IEEE research across AI-assisted security, enterprise AI systems, and intelligent infrastructure protection, and I build working systems that put those ideas into practice.
Prompt Engineering
I design prompts that produce consistent, reliable outputs from LLMs. My approach focuses on structured prompt chains, context management, and output validation with the same engineering discipline I apply to infrastructure work.
Model Training and Evaluation
I train and evaluate models with a focus on practical reliability. My self-correcting LLM research and distributed AI work both come from the same question: how do you make AI systems more dependable in real workflows?
AI Project Development
I build AI-powered applications from concept through deployment. My projects include AI-driven security systems, intelligent data analysis platforms, and health-tech applications that use AI for personalized recommendations.
AI Automation Tools
I use automation platforms to connect AI capabilities with business workflows. My n8n deployment and OpenClaw integration work show how intelligent automation can reduce manual effort and improve operational consistency.
AI Engineering Alignment
Client & Enterprise Delivery
Real work I have delivered for companies and clients — mail infrastructure, file services, IP telephony, network and cloud architecture, AI automation platforms, and business websites. These are production deployments and live sites, separate from the open-source builds you will find in the Projects section below.
GitHub Highlights & Open-Source Builds
Separate from the client work in Completed Works above, these are my own open-source builds and research systems — cloud infrastructure, network security, AI automation, data workflow tooling, applied AI, and API-driven web apps. Each one is live and shows how I think through a problem.
Infrastructure, Security, Automation, Applied AI, and API Development
I use these builds to show my thinking in serverless firewall design, Zero Trust security, threat intelligence integration, cloud-ready automation, data analysis tooling, multi-agent AI systems, intelligent workflow platforms, and API-driven web applications. For me, they are one of the clearest ways to connect my engineering work with the research direction behind it.
Google Scholar and Research Pipeline
Published Research Portfolio
My Google Scholar profile now includes work across network security, cloud computing, edge computing, enterprise systems, digital forensics, IoT intrusion detection, graph-enhanced CRM, and AI-assisted infrastructure protection. The first-author direction that matters most to me is still physical and cloud network infrastructure security, serverless defense, distributed systems, and security engineering that can move beyond theory.
My strongest first-author work is around cloud security, Zero Trust, serverless firewall architecture, distributed-network resource allocation, and enterprise AI systems.
I have also worked with Dr. Kefei Wang and broader teams across networking, intelligent systems, cybersecurity, and cloud platforms.
The themes I keep coming back to are physical and cloud infrastructure security, network defense automation, edge systems, enterprise analytics, and infrastructure-aware AI applications.
Research Pipeline
Beyond the 15 published papers, this is the active pipeline, split into three clear stages. Most of it stays close to cloud security, Zero Trust automation, federated intelligence, and AI-assisted infrastructure defense.

I keep two separate resumes here because they serve two different goals. The job resume is built for hiring teams and industry roles. The PhD resume is built for faculty review, research applications, and academic collaboration.
Two Focused Tracks
Both resumes were rewritten to match the portfolio, the current project work, the publication pipeline, and the kind of opportunities I am targeting next. If you are hiring for infrastructure and security work, start with the job resume. If you are reviewing me for PhD or research opportunities, start with the PhD resume.
Industry Track
Focused on enterprise IT, network security, systems administration, infrastructure delivery, certifications, and the work I have already done in production environments.
Research Track
Focused on research direction, first-author work, co-authored publications, ongoing submissions, research systems, and the areas where I want to contribute in future academic work.
Knowledge Sharing
I use this part of my site to explain my work in a more personal and readable way. A resume or a short portfolio card can only say so much, so here I write about my industry experience, client work, GitHub projects, and research in a way that feels closer to how I would explain it in a real conversation.
Why I Write Here
On the homepage, I keep things short. In the blog, I slow down and explain what I built, what I learned, what problems I was trying to solve, and why the work matters. I write about network security, Linux and Windows systems administration, cloud infrastructure, client delivery work, applied AI projects, and research that grew from the same real interests.
If you are hiring, this part shows how I think through network security, systems work, cloud infrastructure, and research-led engineering in a more complete way than a resume can.
If you are thinking about working with me, these notes give you a clearer picture of the kind of service work I have done across mail, file, web, telephony, network design, and cloud systems.
If you want to understand my research without reading a paper first, I explain my published work, current submissions, and first-author ideas in simpler language here.
How To Read It
I wrote these notes in a simple and direct way because I want the site to feel useful, not heavy. Whether you care most about cybersecurity, cloud systems, client work, AI projects, or research papers, this part of the site lets you go deeper without feeling lost.
