Tyler Ramsey ’21 — <\/em>As my sophomore year\u00a0neared its end, I had little time to find a summer internship that would make or break my next two years at Wabash. I knew I had a passion for computers, and I was dedicated\u00a0to\u00a0taking the IT route, I just could not find the right fit. As time ticked, I encountered Shane\u00a0Fimbel, CEO of Trek10,\u00a0located in South Bend, Indiana. Dr.\u00a0Fimbel\u00a0offered a summer intern position at Trek10,\u00a0and it would not have been possible without the generosity of the\u00a0Small Business Internship Fund and the\u00a0CIBE for helping me secure it.\u00a0The experience I had\u00a0at\u00a0Trek10 was nothing but\u00a0life-changing.<\/p>\n

The opportunity to work for Trek10 not only allowed me to expand my knowledge within the tech field but also gave me a route to take for my next\u00a0two\u00a0years at Wabash. I have a couple of experiences I would like to share from my summer internship with Trek10. The first experience I would like to share is obtaining my AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner certification.\u00a0On the first day of my internship,\u00a0Dr.\u00a0Fimbel\u00a0explained\u00a0the significance of technical expertise of the cloud, since Trek10 is a company that is solely focused on cloud computing. Trek10 gave me every resource possible in order to feel comfortable and confident with Amazon Web Service tools and\u00a0its\u00a0features. As an AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner, I have\u00a0a\u00a0general knowledge of AWS tools and resources\u00a0in addition to\u00a0a strong understanding of different pricing models for a client who is looking to switch their company over to AWS. I believe that\u00a0this certification opened more doors for me in the upcoming year or two as I finish my time here at Wabash.<\/p>\n

Although I\u2019ve had much more experience\u00a0with the tech side of things, I also had the\u00a0opportunity to\u00a0gain experience\u00a0in\u00a0the research and development side. I\u00a0was tasked with\u00a0finishing an ongoing research paper that Trek10\u00a0plans on publishing\u00a0in the near future.\u00a0I\u00a0created\u00a0a digital database that pulled in a select few of researchers who produced papers about serverless computing. The database I gathered\u00a0not only\u00a0allowed me to produce various graphs, but it also allowed me to construct the relationships\u00a0between the researchers in the database. In order to connect the authors through their work, I used a network analysis tool software called\u00a0Gephi\u00a0that produced a large visual representation of the connections. The graph takes a lot of trial and error, but once I applied the ideal filters for our results, I was able to show how connected each author was and\u00a0whether or not\u00a0they were put in a certain group (community). The research paper was a great learning experience\u00a0because\u00a0it gave me exposure to conducting proper research and\u00a0how to write a research paper\u00a0properly.<\/p>\n

All of this would not have been possible if it weren\u2019t for the CIBE\u00a0for helping me secure my internship and the Small Business Internship Fund for funding my summer internship.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
