About
I’m a hands-on IT professional and developer with a field-first understanding of how technology behaves outside the lab. My work spans network infrastructure, servers, wireless systems, operational software, and the practical processes that keep them useful.
I enjoy the difficult middle: connecting equipment, people, data, and software into a system that can actually be operated and supported.
Capabilities
Routing, switching, VLAN architecture, Wi-Fi and wireless backhaul
Linux, Docker, virtualization, reverse proxies and secure remote access
Python, Django, Flask, PostgreSQL, Bootstrap and operational tooling
Turning unclear field symptoms into testable causes and durable fixes
