Hi, I’m Miranda.
About
I build stable systems — at home and in life.
I’m a networking student focused on practical infrastructure, home network security, and resilient system design. I care about clarity, security, and building things that simply work.
In addition to technical work, I serve in a leadership role with the Junior League of Seattle, supporting facilities planning, project coordination, and organizational operations.
Outside of the lab, I restore an A-frame home, design intentional spaces, and plant trees for the long term — projects that reflect my approach to systems: thoughtful, practical, and built to last.
Currently completing my degree and expanding into network security, systems administration, and infrastructure.
About
I like systems that are steady, secure, and thoughtfully built — whether it’s a network,
a server, or a small A-frame home that needs good decisions and follow-through.
Applying for a BAS at Whatcom Community College while expanding into network security and systems administration.
I enjoy hands-on labs, troubleshooting, and turning messy problems into clean configurations.
Outside of class, I’m restoring my home and building a food forest — trees, understory plants,
and long-term planning. It’s the same mindset: do it right, keep it resilient, and let it grow.
