// about
Started as IT Administrator in 2018, worked my way through System Engineer to DevOps.
Each step: less firefighting, more building things that don't need firefighting.
Outside of work: homelab running self-hosted services and whatever I'm learning this month, 3D printing, electronics, cooking, and currently working through a sailing license course.
Perfect infrastructure don't need heroes.
Perfect infrastructure need maintenance.
