About
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.
Projects
These projects are built around real systems, networking, Linux services, edge devices, and practical documentation.
Designed as a practical infrastructure environment for networking, monitoring, service hosting, and documentation.
Personal infrastructure lab focused on network segmentation, virtualization, self-hosted services, monitoring, and architecture documentation.
Built to simulate distributed infrastructure, container orchestration, and scalable service deployment.
Multi-node K3s cluster built for container orchestration, service deployment, and infrastructure experimentation.
Bridges RF communication into IP-based infrastructure using Linux, Direwolf, and APRS-IS.
Operational dual-node APRS iGate system built with Raspberry Pi, Direwolf, APRS-IS, RF radios, HomeLab network integration, and planned mobile GPS support.
NOC Roadmap
Ced’s NOC is being built as a staged monitoring and systems-visibility platform for HomeLab, Kubernetes, edge devices, and future production-style dashboards.
JSON-driven dashboard that displays real inventory, online/offline checks, service labels, latency, and last-check timestamps.
Scheduled local script updates will refresh system status data automatically and push dashboard-ready JSON into the portfolio.
Deeper monitoring stack for Proxmox, TrueNAS, K3s, Raspberry Pi nodes, Uptime Kuma, and APRS edge systems.
Resume Snapshot
I’m positioning myself around digital systems, infrastructure, networking, automation, and technical operations — especially roles where hands-on problem solving and system integration matter.
More detailed resume content will be added here as the portfolio grows.
Personal Note
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.
