Full-Stack Developer & Infrastructure Builder

Ship fast.
Break nothing.

I build production Django apps and manage the infrastructure they run on — Docker containers, Traefik reverse proxies, VPS deployments, and Cloudflare DNS. Self-taught, production-hardened.

// 03 — about

The human behind the YAML

I'm a self-taught engineer who built my skills from the ground up — 3 years of hands-on infrastructure work, running production systems, fighting fires at 2am, and learning what actually matters when software has to stay alive.

I currently run two businesses in parallel: a web development operation where I build full-stack Django applications for clients, and a lawn care company (yes, really) where I built custom quoting tools, automated CRM workflows, and manage all the digital infrastructure. Both taught me that DevOps isn't just a job title — it's a mindset.

My focus right now is cloud engineering, particularly AWS certifications and hardening my infrastructure skills for larger-scale systems. I'm drawn to problems where reliability, automation, and developer experience intersect.

Outside the terminal: rural land, wooded terrain, Gulf Coast wildlife, and driving a Titan with a truck bed full of gear. I believe the best engineers slow down and breathe regularly.
