About

I started this blog as a way to share the things I learn while working with computers and technology. Over the years I’ve realized that writing things down is one of the best ways to both understand them better and help someone else who may be trying to solve the same problem.

My professional background is in systems administration, where I spend a lot of time keeping systems running and troubleshooting the ones that aren’t. Many of the posts here will likely come from that world — documenting fixes, lessons learned, and practical solutions to everyday technical problems.

Outside of technology, I have a long-standing interest in genealogy and family history. I enjoy researching where my family came from and preserving those stories for future generations. From time to time, that work will also make its way onto this site.

This blog is intentionally simple and self-hosted. I built the platform myself as a way to experiment with web technologies and maintain control over my own content. It’s not meant to be flashy — just clean, readable, and useful.

If something here helps you solve a problem, learn something new, or sparks an idea of your own, then the site has done its job.
