v0.2.0: profile content, terminal aesthetic, two-column layout
- Real bio: SRE since 1998, sysadmin -> code arc, homelab scope
including the 10G symmetric fiber and Dell + Nexus fleet
- Off-keyboard texture: hiking, Pokemon Go (GoFest 2026), space,
game collecting, currently reading Thinking in Systems, currently
playing Helldivers 2 + Pokopia (Switch 2)
- Tagline reframed as a literal terminal session: $ unbiasedgeek
with the brutal-truth creed as command output
- Phosphor green palette (#7ee787) on a green-tinted dark background
with a subtle radial glow
- Self-hosted Inter (body) + Share Tech Mono (terminal/headings)
- Two-column layout: main content + sticky sidebar (Find me,
Interests, Not into); collapses to single column on mobile

I've been working in IT since 1998, starting out as a system
administrator wrangling Windows NT 3.5 and Linux boxes before
either of them was particularly forgiving. I knew I'd end up
working with computers back in the third grade and never
seriously questioned it. Over the years the work has shifted
from racking servers and keeping them alive to writing the
code and infrastructure that does the keeping-alive for me --
which is roughly how I ended up as a Site Reliability
Engineer. Off the clock I build self-hosted developer tools
and agentic AI systems, mostly in Go and Python, and run a
homelab built around a fleet of Dell enterprise servers, a
Cisco Nexus 10G switch, and a 10 Gbps symmetric residential
fiber connection -- which I'm slowly bringing under proper
infrastructure-as-code management.

When I'm not at a keyboard you'll find me on a trail
somewhere, hunting raids in Pokemon Go (already planning for
GoFest 2026), or losing an evening to anything space-related
-- rockets, telescopes, the slow strange physics of it all.
I'm a lifelong video game collector across retro and modern,
console and PC, with a soft spot for city builders and
systems games like Factorio and Pokopia -- anything with a
satisfying loop and a spreadsheet hiding underneath.
Currently reading < em > Thinking in Systems< / em > , and bouncing
between Helldivers 2 missions with my weekly game group and
Pokopia on the Switch 2.
