I’m an IT/DevOps professional with many years of hands-on experience across Windows, Linux, Automation, Backup and Cloud. I love building real-world automations to make infrastructure reliable, secure, and self-healing. Through this blog, I share practical learnings from enterprise projects and my home-lab experiments on Cloudflare, Self-Hosting and everything in between. Always tinkering, always improving.
