The Person
About
Tech enthusiast. Power lifter. Entrepreneur. Self-taught builder.
My journey started in 2007, when I first installed GNU/Linux on an old AMD Athlon XP 2000+. That single act opened a rabbit hole I never climbed out of — systems programming, server administration, cryptography, and network engineering.
With no formal IT education, I've taught myself everything from Python and Rust to ZFS administration and kernel module development. I run my homelab on Proxmox, manage encrypted ZFS arrays, and spend weekends configuring PAM modules for fun.
By day, I build systems and infrastructure. By night, I'm deep in the same rabbit hole — the line between work and play disappeared years ago.
