IT operations, automation, and hands-on engineering

I lead and document practical technology work across network infrastructure, operational workflows, embedded systems, and human-reviewed AI automation.

Selected Work

• IT Operations Reporting Workflow

  Sample demonstration

  A sample demonstration of a human-reviewed reporting workflow for turning ticket and uptime exports into a reconciled leadership report.

• Tempest Dux

  A custom wireless split keyboard combining PCB design, 3D-printed mechanical iteration, ZMK firmware, and an integrated trackball.

• Operational Security Architecture

  Planning and governance work for monitoring, segmentation, incident response, and carefully gated automation.

• Automatic Antenna Tracker

  A config-driven antenna tracker that keeps a directional antenna pointed at an aircraft using live telemetry, for long-range RC and drone FPV.

• Self-Hosted Infrastructure

  A local-first home infrastructure built on segmented networking, an Unraid server, private remote access over Tailscale, and a reverse proxy for internal services.

About

I am an IT operations leader and hands-on technologist. My work centers on making complex systems understandable, supportable, and safer to operate. I use automation where it removes repeat work, while keeping human judgment in consequential decisions.
