About

I'm a 26 year old Reformed Baptist (opens in a new tab) born and raised in Australia (opens in a new tab). Since childhood, I've had a natural affinity for computers, diving deep into video games, tinkering and taking apart old computers. After graduating high school, I spent about 9 months studying a dual degree of Psychology and Criminology.

I dropped out of university and travelled to the United States (opens in a new tab) for about 3 months, working at a Methodist Summer Camp (opens in a new tab) with my mate, Jaydan Holmes. We met many wonderful people along the way (he ended up marrying one of them)! We ended our trip with a road trip across the country from Loudown County Virginia (opens in a new tab) to Los Angeles California (opens in a new tab).

After coming back from the United States, I landed a job supporting a small web hosting company called Conetix (opens in a new tab). All thanks to Jaydan's brother Dan for that! It was there that my enthusiasm for web development and self-hosting really began to take off.

I've explored Proxmox, Docker, Kubernetes, and more, finding satisfaction in using open-source software to build and host applications. Nowadays, I'm all about web development, that software being - JavaScript, Astro, and TailwindCSS. A running list of the tools and hardware I use is on my Uses page.
