Summary
Ashley Bligh is a Technical Expert in Networks based in the Greater Bristol Area with over 11 years of hands-on experience designing, migrating and managing large campus LAN/WAN environments. She has led technical projects at the University of Bristol to modernise topologies, introduce redundancy, and migrate to 802.1X, and now applies that expertise to research and digital-futures infrastructure. Comfortable across Cisco, Aruba, Juniper and Fortinet platforms, she pairs routing and TCP/IP depth with practical skills in Windows servers, virtualisation and network monitoring/administration tools. Known for turning legacy estates into resilient, auditable networks, she also drives vulnerability management and documentation to bridge operations and security. An unexpected thread in her profile is a research-scientist interest in genetic epidemiology noted on GitHub, suggesting an appetite for data-driven research and cross-disciplinary collaboration.
