Willis Crosby, a senior Information Systems major with a certificate in Network Administration, discusses his journey at DoIT. Willis has worked as an Install Technician at AV services for over three years, and in just a few short weeks, he'll be walking the stage and graduating as a member of the Class of 2026. 

Willis’ Digital Story

In his DoIT digital story, Willis talks about his work, how he got here, and the ways his experiences have helped him grow. He’s proud to do what he does, and enjoys coming into work everyday, something he credits as an early sign the role was right for him. Willis also discusses the importance of leveraging your network from the top down, not just your coworkers. Knowing the right people can get you started and put you on the right path.

Please join us in congratulating Willis on his graduation and years of hard work at DoIT, best of luck on the road ahead!

Hi, my name is Peyton Ashley. I’ll be a 19-year-old sophomore at UMBC next semester, majoring in Business Technology Administration. I’m currently looking for a roommate for the upcoming semester.

I’m clean and responsible. I don’t throw parties, I’m not loud, and I usually keep to a regular schedule. Most of my time goes to schoolwork, hanging out with friends occasionally, or playing games in my free time.

I respect shared spaces and stay on top of rent and bills. Looking for someone who’s also easy to live with and respectful.

If you’re interested, feel free to reach out.
