Passionate Home Server Operator & Solutions Engineer
I wonder... do I like solving problems so much? Or is it that I just like problems? 🥴
I'm focused on declarative infrastructure and security-first design. Deep diving into Ceph, Docker, Kubernetes, Proxmox, and Windows Server. I take pride in the fact that I can convince myself that pouring all of my time into these things is making my life more manageable.
I maintain the production environment for PrecisionPlanIT with Proxmox, K8s, Ceph storage, and automated deployments.
Mission: Security and infrastructure knowledge should be accessible to everyone. Technical proficiency is no longer optional—it's a requirement for navigating modern life.
The security of one is the security of all. We are in this together. 🌱

💚 Values & Vibes
8+ years Vegan, anticapitalist and anarchist. Okay maybe not anarchist, please don't set the world on fire...
My etiquette? You can ask me for the CarFax. 🚗 I'm clean as truck boo 🛻💖
I believe in brutal honesty and being my unrestrained self. I feel like if being myself is a problem then I have something to work on.
WYSIWYG, I wonder if the truth is that I am an old soul and my cringe has always been my subconscious attempt to adapt to the times...
Never toxic, love and light above all ✨
