Tech Projects That Taught Me: Experiments, Errors & Growth

My evolving collection of builds, tools, automations, and adventures in infrastructure.

PiHole Ad Blocker

Network-wide ad blocking with PiHole and a Raspberry Pi. My gateway to Linux and smarter home networking.

PiVPN WireGuard

Secure, private VPN for my home network using WireGuard, running on a Pi. Remote access made easy!

GeniSys

My custom automation/orchestration stack: Linux, scripts, containers, and whatever tech I want to play with next.

Home Server (TrueNAS Scale)

My lab-in-a-box running TrueNAS Scale: ZFS storage, apps, VMs, and media. The heart of my ongoing tech experiments.

Home Assistant

The brain of my smart home: lights, sensors, cameras, and climate tied together with automations and dashboards.

Cloud Servers

A self-hosted MSP stack in miniature: TacticalRMM and a Zammad helpdesk running across a small fleet of cloud servers.

Rustdesk Server

Self-hosted remote desktop support in the cloud. Fast, private, and lighter than a full RMM.

Unifi Dream Machine SE

The heart of my home network: firewall, VLAN segmentation, IDS/IPS, and PoE in one Ubiquiti box.

Nebula

My open-source network monitoring & RMM platform: a single Go binary, an embedded database, and big ambitions.

Wazuh Security Monitoring

My own cloud-hosted SIEM: log analysis, file integrity, and vulnerability detection across my machines.
