IT Operations
My journey in IT began at the age of 12 when I started experimenting with 386 PCs and DOS 6.22. What began as a curiosity about how computers work evolved into a lifelong passion. Over the years I’ve built a diverse skill set through both personal projects and professional work.
Home Lab Environment
The projects here come from my home lab where I experiment with infrastructure, virtualization, networking and self-hosted services..
Most of these started as ideas or problems I wanted to solve, then evolved through rebuilding systems and troubleshooting when things broke. The lab is where I try things, break them and fix them.
Over time the environment has grown into a small infrastructure stack built around Proxmox, segmented networking and containerized services. Systems are deployed across internal networks managed through pfSense. Most systems are running either as VMs or containers.
Hybrid Linux and Windows Systems
My primary workstation runs Fedora, which I use for daily work, managing my home lab and streaming from my LAN -based cloud gaming system. Windows systems are used where they make sense, including gaming hosts for my kids.
These Windows systems are accessed from Linux or Windows using Moonlight streaming, allowing us to share hardware and play remotely from anywhere in the house.
Most infrastructure in the lab runs on Linux platforms, including a Proxmox virtualization cluster hosting both containers and Virtual Machines such as a simulated Active Directory environment.
The goal of the lab is to build systems, understand how they interact and document the kind of projects that I’ve been working with most of my life around computers and technology.
