I am a Junior Systems Administrator with a passion for building stuff. I have my
own homelab which I use to test my new creations on the path to my goal-career in
cybersecurity. At the moment, I'm a student at Griffith University.

Since 2014, I've had an interest in programming and making things. I've made this
portfolio as a place for me to collate and show off some of the work that I've done.

At the moment, I've returned back to Uni to finish my degree after achieving a point in
my career that I am happy with. With the experience I've gained, and after finishing my
studies, my plan is to work in the cybersecurity field.

<Countdown />
<TextContent>
I am currently studying a Bachelor of Information Technology at Griffith University,
opting for a no major or minor option. Having previously studied Computer Science at QUT
from 2019-2021, I decided to take a break from study and focus on work experience. As of
2023, I returned to studying at Griffith using the experiences I gained from both QUT
and from work.

From my previous work experience, employers look more for relevant skills and industry
knowledge over the type of degree or the majors and minors you study. The mentorship I
gained from those jobs was what influenced me to change my degree over, and to not
choose a major.
</TextContent>
<TextContent>
As time has progressed, my goals and ambitions have also adapted. Initially, I wanted to
be a systems administrator. Upon reaching that goal, I shifted my gaze to what I wanted
to do work towards, setting on cybersecurity. Given that the industry is ever-changing,
I felt it appropriate to not hem myself in to a single major or minor.

<h1 class="my-6 text-6xl p-5 text-center text-base-content font-bold">Experiences</h1>
<Timeline />
<h3 class="p-5 text-4xl text-center">Informal Experience</h3>
<TextContent>
Griffith University has also been helpful in engaging me with industry panels and
experiences. In early 2024, one of my units had a panel with some industry experts who
discussed what the future of the IT industry would look like. Coming away from that
panel, I felt better about the path I had taken. The experts all agreed that the
industry is an ever-changing field, so it really doesn't make sense to stay comfortable
with a single expertise.

Another extracurricular activity I undertook was the 2023 'James-Jam'. In this activity,
groups were formed and given two weeks to construct a working game in p5play.js. The
theme was a game remniscient of Homeworld (1999). While this wasn't a competition, our
group did an amazing job at constructing a fully working game. You can play the game at
<a class="link" href="https://gamejam2023.nickbland.dev/">this link here</a>. And if you
want to view the source code, it can be found
<a class="link" href="https://github.com/NickBland">on my GitHub</a>.

Outside of work experience and university, I also aim to learn new projects in my own
time. For example, the website you are reading this on was built by hand by me. You can
find the source code for this project, and others at my personal <a
class="link"
href="https://git.nickbland.dev">GitLab instance here</a
>
or my <a class="link" href="https://github.com/NickBland">GitHub here</a>.

On top of that, I also have my own homelab setup. Utilising Proxmox, I run hosts and
containers for various services that both me, and my friends and family enjoy. For a
list of services that I am running, you can visit my <a

href="https://status.nickbland.dev/">AWS-hosted status page here</a
>.
</TextContent>
<TextContent>
The homelab is a constantly evolving project that has given enabled me to self-teach
myself aspects of linux administration in a safer environment. In the future, I may have
a blog with some of the more interesting projects I've worked on.
