I'm an IT professional with a passion for networking, systems administration, virtualization, and infrastructure design. What started as a home lab hobby turned into a career supporting and managing enterprise environments.
I enjoy building reliable systems, automating repetitive tasks, and solving complex technical challenges. My interests include networking, virtualization, Linux, storage, cybersecurity, cloud technologies, and self-hosted services.
While I've written my fair share of PowerShell, Bash, JavaScript, and other scripts, I still follow a simple philosophy:
If it works and I can maintain it later, it's good code.
