Work
Case studies from my lab and my projects: the problem each one solved, the decisions behind it, and how it is put together. Open any card for the full breakdown.


App Portal
Sep 2026 - PresentA self-service app store for managed Windows PCs: people install software an administrator approved, without admin rights, through Action1 or a SYSTEM agent I wrote, backed by an ASP.NET Core server and shipped as an MSI.
Tools and Scripts
Jul 2026 - PresentTwenty-seven small tools for monitoring, Windows and Linux administration, and Ansible automation, each with its own README, example config, safeguards, and tests, all held to one repository-wide check.
A Python command-line tool that gets Parrot OS 7 working on 2016-2017 Touch Bar MacBook Pros: it reads the hardware, offers only the fixes that Mac needs, and can undo every one of them.
Surface Pro 5 on Ubuntu
Sep 2026Fixes and a setup guide for running Ubuntu 26.04 on a Surface Pro 5 as a tablet: multitouch that works, a touchscreen that survives boot and snap installs, a kernel pin that does not go stale, and working power and volume buttons.
TNIO Schedule Bot
Sep 2026A Discord bot that builds the weekly event schedule post from a shared Google Calendar and edits it whenever the calendar changes, handed off to a friend with a one-click installer and a local control panel.

Cybersecurity Lab
Aug 2025 - PresentA blue-and-red security portfolio where every attack I run ends on the control that catches it: custom Snort and Wazuh detections, a Splunk pipeline, DFIR, and exploit work in an isolated VM lab.

Network Engineering Lab
Aug 2025 - PresentTurning a flat home network into a segmented, zero-trust one: 12 routed VLANs, a zone-based firewall, WireGuard-only admin access, plus Cisco IOS and subnetting built from scratch.
Hybrid AD & Entra ID Lab
Feb 2025 - Nov 2025A two-controller Windows Server 2025 forest, hardened with Group Policy and AppLocker, synced to Entra ID, backed up to Azure, then attacked from Kali to prove the hardening holds.

IT & Systems Administration Lab
Jun 2024 - PresentFive hands-on projects across the platforms my infrastructure runs on: Linux from the command line up, Python and PowerShell scripting, and Windows patch management I can audit.


Star Galaxy
Nov 2025 - PresentA Star Wars galaxy map and community site for the TNIO gaming group: a shared 3D map that admins edit live, a news section, and access rules enforced in the database rather than the browser.
