About Me

I’m a hands-on technologist with a strong interest in software, systems, and security. I learn by building and experimenting — reverse-engineering problems, testing assumptions, and refining solutions through iteration. I value clarity, correctness, and understanding systems from the inside out.

I spend most of my time building, repairing, and modifying technology — from custom PCs and servers to embedded devices and drones. I enjoy working close to the metal, where operating systems, networks, and hardware behavior intersect.

I approach technology as something to be tested, taken apart, documented, and improved. I focus on security, reliability, and understanding how systems fail — then making them better.

My technical background is rooted in hands-on experimentation and self-directed learning. I started by working with consumer hardware — upgrading and repairing PCs, troubleshooting systems, and restoring older machines — which grew into broader experience with operating systems, networking, and low-level configuration. I regularly work with both Windows and Linux environments and maintain lab systems for testing, recovery, and performance tuning.

Over time, my projects expanded into embedded and small-form systems, including Raspberry Pi builds, electronics repair, console modding, and microcontroller-based projects. I document builds and experiments, focusing on repeatable setups and practical results rather than one-off demos.

I am currently studying Computer Systems Technology and continuing to build practical experience in cybersecurity, system administration, and infrastructure. My approach emphasizes testing, documentation, and understanding root causes — not just applying fixes, but knowing why they work.
