NAVIGATE THE DIGITAL LANDSCAPE WITH CONFIDENCE
EZEKIEL A. OBEISUN JR
CLOUD COMPUTING GRADUATE
I grew up around computers — Windows Vista machines that crashed constantly, and MacBooks that just worked. That contrast taught me something early: using technology is easy. Understanding why it works — or fails — is what actually matters.
That curiosity led me to Western Governors University, where I earned my B.S. in Cloud Computing in January 2026. But somewhere along the way, networking became my focus — not as a checkbox, but as a foundation I wanted to own. How data moves, where systems break, how to design infrastructure that degrades gracefully instead of catastrophically. That's the work that pulls me in.
I'm currently pursuing my CCNA, working through Wendell Odom's Official Cert Guide volumes 1 and 2 and supplementing with video walkthroughs along the way — building VLANs, configuring inter-VLAN routing, and studying how enterprise networks actually scale under pressure. I complement that with Python: automating configurations, validating network states, and writing scripts that make systems more consistent and less dependent on whoever happened to be on shift.
My cert stack was built with intention, not collection. CompTIA's core four (A+, Network+, Security+, CySA+), ITIL 4, and three AWS credentials — Developer Associate, Solutions Architect, and Security Specialty — each a deliberate step deeper into the infrastructure layer beneath everything else. An early experience through the Trend Micro CPITS Program confirmed what I already suspected: weak design gets exposed fast, and solid fundamentals aren't optional.
My target is clear: Network Engineer, growing toward Network Architect. I'm drawn to Cisco-aligned environments, data center infrastructure, and roles where design decisions carry real consequences.
The philosophy behind everything I do here is simple: 1% better every day. Not dramatic pivots or shortcut chasing — consistent, intentional growth that compounds over time. This site documents that work: projects, notes, and progress, built in public.

EDUCATION
Building a strong foundation in networking and cloud technologies to support modern IT systems.
Bachelor of Science in Cloud Computing
Bachelor of Science in Cloud Computing (Completed January 2026)
Western Governors University
My coursework focused on how computer systems connect and communicate, and how cloud platforms like Amazon Web Services and Microsoft Azure support real businesses. I learned the essentials of building reliable networks, protecting data, and creating cloud environments that keep modern applications running without interruption.

AWS VPN Setup with Active Directory
Built secure AWS Client VPN connecting remote users to cloud resources using WireGuard and Tailscale. Configured Active Directory authentication, SSL/TLS certificates, and proper routing to enable encrypted remote access—demonstrating how enterprises protect cloud infrastructure while supporting flexible work environments.
Technical Implementation:
- Deployed Active Directory for centralized authentication
- Generated SSL/TLS certificates via AWS CLI for secure client connections
- Configured VPN endpoint with security groups and network associations
- Tested connectivity and validated encrypted tunnel establishment
🏢 Business Value: Enables secure remote workforce access to cloud resources while maintaining enterprise-grade security controls.
🎓
PowerShell Automation Tool
Developed a menu-driven PowerShell script that streamlines IT operations by automating routine system administration tasks. This tool empowers junior administrators to perform essential checks safely while reducing manual errors and improving team efficiency.
Technical Implementation:
- Built interactive menu using PowerShell control structures (switch, loops)
- Automated file system reporting, log discovery, and system resource monitoring
- Implemented real-time process checks (CPU, memory utilization)
- Applied PowerShell best practices: error handling, descriptive variable naming, inline documentation
- Created maintainable code supporting knowledge transfer and future enhancements
🏢 Business Value: Reduces repetitive manual work for IT staff, improves operational consistency, and provides junior administrators a safe framework for essential system tasks.
Small Office VLAN Network
Designed a small office network in Cisco Packet Tracer using VLANs to separate departments. Configured inter-VLAN routing, subnet ranges, and basic security services—demonstrating practical network segmentation for organized, secure traffic flow.
Technical Implementation:
- Segmented network by department using VLANs
- Configured inter-VLAN routing and subnet addressing
- Implemented DHCP for automated IP assignment
- Set up basic network services (Switch CLI, VLANs, DHCP)
🏢 Business Value: Shows how proper network design keeps departmental traffic organized and secure while maintaining connectivity across the organization.
