I’m an IT & Business Graduate Paolo Ibanez Medina

I build tech projects I’m interested in and document what I learn along the way. Projects in IT support, systems, automation, and web development either in WordPress or HTML, CSS and Javascript. This website is my portfolio and my notebook: Research, articles, and experiments that show how I work.

About Me

I’m a hands-on problem solver who likes turning messy problems or process into a more simple step by step.

Building With Curiosity

I’m Paolo Ibanez Medina, an Information Technology & Business Administration graduate. I enjoy practical problem-solving, setting up systems, troubleshooting issues, and improving workflows so technology is easier to use and maintain.

I’ve worked with tools like Linux, networking, Python, WordPress/WooCommerce, databases, and documentation workflows. I like sharing lessons through articles and writing it up so others can learn from it too.

Contact Me

I’m still early in my career, so I treat every project as a chance to grow. I document what I do, what worked, and what I’d improve next time, because that’s how I learn and how I show my process.

What I’m Focused On Right Now

These are the areas I’m actively building experience in.

IT Support & Troubleshooting

Hands-on support, clear communication, and documenting fixes so problems don’t keep repeating.

Systems & Home Lab Learning

Learning Linux, networking, and basic infrastructure through personal labs and small deployments.

Web + Documentation

Building clean websites and writing step-by-step guides/case studies to explain how things work.

How I Approach Projects

I try to keep things simple: understand the problem, choose the smallest solution that works, test it, then document it so someone else (or future me) can repeat it.

Work Experience
