Work
Freelance and founder work, not classroom exercises. The kind where you own everything from the pixels to the uptime to the invoices.
Design / Engineering / Privacy
2026 · In progress
A ground-up rebuild of my personal site as a working demonstration of privacy-respecting engineering: zero third-party requests, strict nonce-based CSP, self-hosted everything, EXIF-stripped photography, and a colophon that invites you to verify each claim.
Infrastructure / Linux
Since 2024 · Ongoing
A Fedora Server box running the household's media and files: Plex, Navidrome, Nextcloud, and Samba shares across Docker and systemd. Hardened with firewalld, fail2ban, and auditd, with smartd watching disk health. It’s the practical side of the systems work I’m studying.
Automation / Operations
Since 2025 · Ongoing
Owning the automation and the troubleshooting for a marketing team building out the Amplex brand, clearing whatever stands between them and scale.
Founder / Full stack
2018–2022 · Wound down
Founded and ran a social media management company with four million Instagram followers under management. Built the client websites, implemented the analytics, and developed the monetization strategies.
Creative direction
2021–2023 · Shipped
End-to-end creative production for automotive clients: scripts, directed and edited video, drone photography, and photoshoots delivered across client websites and social platforms.
