About
I started with game servers, breaking configurations and rebuilding them until I understood how they were put together.
A lot of the background comes from hands-on IT work. I co-founded a small computer repair and IT services business, handling diagnostics, component-level repairs, malware cleanup, maintenance, networking, and technical issues for local clients. That work put hardware, systems, and troubleshooting in the same room every day.
Software grew from that same base. Early projects were backend-heavy: business workflows, web apps, and internal tools on PHP and MySQL, before expanding into React, Angular, desktop, and mobile. The common thread was never the stack. It was understanding the operational problem, then building the smallest system that solved it.
Most of my work now is infrastructure, automation, and internal systems. Linux, Windows, macOS, VPS environments, Docker, Kubernetes, integrations, and the daily operational work where configuration, maintenance, and troubleshooting overlap.
The current focus is AI automation: chatbots, agents, and n8n workflows for operations, internal processes, and repetitive work. If configuration is the fastest path, I configure it. If a workflow needs cleanup, I clean it up. If the job needs a custom tool, I build it.
