01 $ cat about.md

The person behind the prompt.

Practically minded.
Technically curious.

Interested in IT from an early age.
Now I work with it every day.

My focus is Linux, infrastructure, automation and technical support. At Exonet, I work on managed hosting with infrastructure as code, proactive administration and reliable systems.

I enjoy practical solutions and tangible improvements. Ideally in a team where collaboration, open communication and enjoying the work matter just as much as the technology.

Solve it once. Automate it well.

Repeatable configurations, clear documentation and less manual work.

02 /

Understand what happens under the hood.

From a log entry to the root cause. From an idea to a working environment.

03 /

Never done learning.

Trying new technologies, asking questions and sharing knowledge.

02 $ git log --oneline

Every step, a new commit.

From workplace administration
to infrastructure as code.
