Hi, I'm Chase!
Digital Systems | Infrastructure | RF Edge Systems
I build real-world systems that combine data, automation, and infrastructure.
From dashboards and full-stack apps to homelab environments, everything I create is designed to solve practical problems and scale.
- π Currently building data dashboards & system monitoring tools
- π₯οΈ Running a full homelab (Proxmox, Kubernetes, Docker)
- βοΈ Focused on automation, infrastructure, and real-world systems
- π§ Ask me about Raspberry Pi clusters, K3s, or system design
- π« Reach me: Chasedumphord@gmail.com
- β‘ Fun fact: I have ball pythons π along with dogs

# π§ Cedβs Portfolio System
π **Live Site:** https://ced4568.github.io/ced-portfolio
This repository represents a **live system portfolio**, not just static projects.
It showcases:
- π **Cedβs NOC Dashboard** (live system monitoring)
- π§ **HomeLab Infrastructure** (Proxmox, VLANs, services)
- βΈοΈ **K3s Cluster** (distributed compute)
- π‘ **APRS iGate (RF Edge System)**

# π Cedβs NOC Dashboard
A central visibility layer for all systems.
### π What it shows:
- Infrastructure health
- Service availability
- Network segmentation
- RF edge system status
### π§ Why it matters:
This demonstrates:
- System monitoring mindset
- Operational visibility
- Real-world infrastructure awareness
