I've worked on a variety of projects, from simple websites to complex web applications. Here are a few of my favorites.

IT & Networking Home Lab

IT & Networking Home Lab

Built a hands-on home lab using a Lenovo ThinkCentre M720q Tiny to simulate enterprise IT environments. Configured and deployed Proxmox as a bare-metal hypervisor, set up networking with NAT over Wi-Fi, and created virtual machines for infrastructure projects.

Pi-hole DNS Sinkhole: Network-Wide Ad and Tracker Blocking

Deployed Pi-hole on a Raspberry Pi Zero 2W as a network-wide DNS sinkhole, blocking 2,499,204 ad, tracker, telemetry, malware, and phishing domains across all devices without installing any software on them. Configured 14 curated blocklists and resolved an IPv6 DNS override issue on Windows caused by the ISP pushing its own DNS servers automatically.
