Open to entry-level IT roles

Jay Hedding

IT Support & Systems

Cybersecurity graduate from Miami University with hands-on experience building, deploying, and supporting real infrastructure — from Windows/Linux environments to virtualized networks.

About me

I recently finished my B.S. in Cybersecurity at Miami University (May 2026, 3.55 GPA) and received the Senior Service Leadership Award. My coursework and personal lab work have given me practical experience across systems administration, networking, and IT support — troubleshooting, documenting, and keeping infrastructure reliable is what I enjoy most.

Throughout college I worked as a janitor at Cleaner With Dean and as kitchen staff at Ramen Hachi, balancing both jobs alongside a full course load.
