I love experimenting with and testing out new technologies, it's thrilling to see new ideas shape the world in a completely new ways. For personal projects: I've created a cloud-storage server with AWS S3-style Object Storage, hosted a Steam games library over iSCSI using ZFS w/deduplication over a small peer-to-peer Thunderbolt 3 network and live and breathe tech every day as part of my hobbies.
