About Me
Hey, thanks for visiting my site. My Name is Marc Kielnik and I'm currently working on getting my CCNA. In my free time I usually like to work on my home server, work on my car, or play a few games of CSGO with my friends.
Home Server
This has been my most exciting project that I've worked on so far. I mainly use Ubiquity for my network needs, using a UDM pro as it's heart. I also have a Truenas scale server thats running an Ubuntu VM. It hosts quite a few things, including the nginx server you're reading this on now!
Brother Project
A project I had a lot of fun doing that involved some code was for brother printers. Brother doesn't give you any tools to make buttons on their larger fax MFC printers. I was able to make a guide on how to use their proprietary tools to edit, create, and delete buttons remotely.
Skills
These are just a few languages / skills I've obtained over the years.HTML5 & CSS3
Throughout highschool I learned the basics of a couple languages. HTML, CSS, and Javascript were the 3 that we used the most. I've made or was a part of a group that made about 4 websites from scratch, including the one on my git hub!
linux Shell / Bash
I've spent countless hours interacting with my home server vm, and I've picked up quite a bit of knowledge along the way. I've made plenty of automation scripts for various programs I host. One of them being a script to auto pull the latest version of my git repo for my website, and then to update the site.
Low Voltage Setup
During my time at Russo Power, I had the chance to help setup a new store location. For 3 days we were sent out to New Berlin WI to finish all the terminations and install the server racks with their equipment.
Device Maintenance
Over time equipment breaks down and things fail. I have plenty of experience in taking apart laptops, desktops, and mobile devices. Experience is both from home and work, as I'm the family IT person.
