About

- Former nurse with no prior tech degree; taught himself coding (from 2007), Linux (from 2014), and pivoted into DevOps after documenting homelab work publicly; first DevOps role in 2021. Emphasizes real projects and a visible public record over credential-chasing.

Knowledge Gardener: public Logseq Zettelkasten at Person/Mischa van den Burg/Garden; cites Person/Tiago Forte on deliberate information management.
- Public framing on the site stresses sovereignty: self-hosted infrastructure, skills portable across employers, and publishing on an owned domain rather than rented social platforms.
