Dear Hiring Manager,

I'm a self-taught developer and IT enthusiast currently pursuing a B.S. in Cybersecurity at the University of Advancing Technology. I'm seeking a role where I can apply my hands-on technical skills in a professional environment — whether that's IT support, infrastructure, or software development.

Outside of my coursework, I've built and maintain a full self-hosted homelab running on bare-metal Proxmox: 20+ Docker services including a Matrix homeserver, self-hosted mail, reverse proxies, DNS, and a WireGuard VPN. I've also developed and deployed six original browser games at games.hackatoa.com, along with a Chrome/Firefox extension for real-time encrypted messaging. I own every layer — from the code to the network to the hardware.

In my current role at Harbor Freight Tools, I've developed strong attention to detail, reliability, and the ability to troubleshoot equipment and systems under pressure. My background in logistics has also given me experience working in fast-paced environments where accuracy matters.

I'm a fast learner, comfortable on any OS, and I like solving problems end-to-end. I'd welcome the opportunity to bring that same approach to your team.

Thank you for your time and consideration.

Sincerely,
Jacob Harris
