I've spent 20 years designing IT systems and solving hard problems at scale. Outside of work I tinker with IoT, automate my home, grow things, and spend time with animals. This is just my little corner of the internet.
20 years designing enterprise systems — cloud, integrations, platforms. I've worked with some great companies on problems worth solving.
Raspberry Pi, Arduino, sensors, custom setups. If I can wire it up and make it smarter, I probably already have.
Home Assistant, MQTT, automations I've spent way too many evenings refining. My house listens to me — most of the time.
Vegetables, herbs, whatever will grow. There's something grounding about getting your hands dirty after a day of cloud infrastructure.
Furry companions, wildlife, the whole lot. Animals are good people.
Automobile enthusiast, curious cat, and a self-appointed make-or-break repair guy. Part-time electrician, plumber, and whatever else the house decides needs fixing that day. If it's broken, I'll figure it out.
