What I do

Full-stack web applications built with modern frameworks. From landing pages to complex tools — fast, accessible, and production-ready.
Network Design
Enterprise network architecture, switching, routing, and firewall configuration. Designed for reliability, segmentation, and scale.
Automation & AI
Eliminating manual work with Python, Ansible, and AI tooling. Network config management, mass changes, and intelligent monitoring.

A bit about me
I'm a network engineer new to the industry, with a passion for how systems communicate — whether that's packets moving through a core switch or data flowing through an API.
I've been building my skills across network design, Python automation, and full-stack web development. This site is both my portfolio and a place to document what I learn along the way.
When I'm not configuring VLANs or writing React components, I'm exploring how AI tools can make network operations smarter and less manual.
