About
Hands-on systems builder with a digital infrastructure mindset
I’m a technical professional focused on digital systems, infrastructure, networking, automation, and hands-on system integration. I enjoy building systems that are practical, reliable, and well documented — from homelab services and dashboards to Raspberry Pi deployments, APRS iGates, and troubleshooting workflows.
My background blends field engineering, industrial technology, software-oriented thinking, and infrastructure problem solving. I’m especially interested in projects that connect the physical and digital worlds through monitoring, networking, automation, and resilient design.
Core Focus Areas
- Digital systems and infrastructure
- Linux systems and service management
- Networking, VLANs, failover, and connectivity troubleshooting
- Raspberry Pi and edge-device deployments
- Documentation, process building, and reproducible project design

Personal Note
Technical, curious, and always building
Outside of work, I enjoy electronics, self-hosting, coding, drones, radio, and hands-on technical projects that push me to learn something useful. That curiosity carries directly into the way I build and document systems.
