About Me

I'm an information technologist who's always learning and exploring different areas of IT. I work as a systems administrator in a K-12 public school district, which has been rewarding in helping to support teachers and students in their learning journey. I've been a longtime supporter of open source, open protocols, and especially online privacy. More recently, I've become a small web and fediverse enthusiast.

Outside of work, I have a wonderful family—an amazing wife and three incredible kids. I enjoy spending time with my family and friends, in devotion to my faith, and studying τὰ βιβλία. In my free time, you can find me buried in a good book, listening to music, or out for a walk or hike.
