About Me
Self proclaimed nerd, technologist, gamer, & avid learner who has an addiction to two wheels.
An organized chaos of my work, interests, & accomplishments.

Interests
Technology
My passion for technology began early, fueled by a love of video games and an insatiable curiosity that led me
to take apart anything I could get my hands on. This interest eventually guided me into the IT industry, where
I landed my first tech role at a small startup in sunny Orange County, California. I started in technical support
and soon transitioned into manual QA and automation testing. When the startup was acquired by Scotts Miracle-Gro,
I relocated to Colorado shortly after. There, I realized I thrive in smaller companies where I can wear multiple hats
and make a meaningful impact. This led me to a PBX manufacturer and telecom company, where I deepened my understanding
of the IT industry, rapidly expanded my skill set, and built lasting professional relationships.
Video Games
Video games have always been more than just a hobby, they’ve shaped who I am. It all started with a Game Boy Color and Pokémon,
then progressed through the Nintendo 64, GameCube, Xbox, PlayStation, and eventually PC gaming. Building my first gaming rig
(the same machine I’m typing this on today) was a turning point. World of Warcraft became a huge part of my life; I sank countless
hours into it, formed incredible friendships across the globe, and even met one of my best friends to this day, Dustin, through
the game. Those experiences taught me collaboration, problem-solving, and the joy of connecting with people over shared passions. Skills
that still serve me in tech.
Cooking
Cooking has been another lifelong love, one that turned into a necessity when I moved out on my own. I owe almost everything I
know in the kitchen to my incredible friend Dustin who patiently taught me the fundamentals and beyond, and I’ll always be grateful
for his guidance. These days I’m especially proud of my mapo tofu, Sichuan eggplant, street-style tacos, and anything pan-seared—fish,
steaks, chops, you name it. If it can go in a hot pan or the oven, I’m confident I can make it delicious.
Plants & Bio-tech
Plants have fascinated me since I was a kid. Over the years I’ve explored horticulture and gardening, experimented with hydroponics and
aeroponics, and dove deep into earthen-building techniques. My long-term dream is to one day own a piece of land and build a fully self-sustaining
earthship with my own hands. An off-grid home that grows its own food, recycles its water, and runs on renewable energy. Everything I learn, from
IT to cooking to growing plants, feels like it’s leading me toward that goal.
Motorcycles
I've got a small collection of bikes, but my absolute favorite is the 2023 Harley-Davidson Low Rider S. There's simply nothing like cracking the throttle
open and letting that Milwaukee-Eight 117 torque pull you forward. California is a rider's paradise, and my favorite stretches are in San Diego, Orange County,
and the Beach Cities. Whether it's cruising down the PCH with the ocean on one side or carving through twisty mountain roads, the year round perfect weather makes every ride memorable.
The next few motorcycles I'd like would be an old shovelhead or sportster chopper as a project bike, a early 2000s Dyna (if you know you know, looking at you Dyna bros), and a Honda CBR just for the Hell of it.

SO MUCH TO PUT HERE

Servers
ProxMox Lab Setup Notes
Downloaded ProxMox VE ISO
Used Rufus to format USB stick for ISO install
Plugged USB into old Dell server
Booted into BIOS and booted from USB stick
Chose graphical install
Set Target Harddisk to the single SSD 1tb drive in the dell server using an xfs file system (if multiple drives/redundant setup I would have used ZFS)
Setup region
Setup admin password and email address
Set static IP
Rebooted and completed the install
loaded my kali ISO under my local storage on node localhost and added and ISO image, under "ISO Images"
Went to top right hand corner of ProxMox and clicked on Create VM
went through the standard setup options to configure hardware
started my install
note to anyone else - if you see your image install just keep looping don't forget to change the boot order/remove the iso image from the cd/rom under your vms hardware :)
logged into kali and updated and upgraded my packages
created a base line snapshot
loaded my ubuntu iso under my local storage on node localhost and added ISO image under "ISO images"
followed roughly the same steps for kali
Same thing for windows eval, however, I need to also install virtio-win.iso by putting it into the hardware cd rom and then finding it in my windows 10 VM and installing it.
For metasploitable, slightly different, had to upload the .vmdk via scp to proxmox server:
C:\iso files>scp Metasploitable.vmdk root@172.16.0.10:/root/
The authenticity of host '172.16.0.10 (172.16.0.10)' can't be established.
ED25519 key fingerprint is SHA256:xRVqOhKSPKc3291TvsXAU3O+tNAqnwcu4zYZeaH+MxU.
This key is not known by any other names.
Are you sure you want to continue connecting (yes/no/[fingerprint])?

Shut down the VM if it's still running (force stop from Proxmox GUI if needed).
Go to VM 103 → Hardware tab.
Look for your SCSI Controller line (likely VirtIO SCSI or VirtIO SCSI single — this is the default when importing/attaching disks).
Select it → Edit (or Remove if needed, then re-add).
Change to LSI 53C895A (also called "Default (LSI 53C895A)" or just "LSI").
This emulates an old-school SCSI controller that Metasploitable 2's kernel understands natively (no extra modules needed).

Misc. Stuff
Desktop Setup
I recently upgraded my desktop rig from an aging GTX 1080 to a beastly NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti (TUF edition).
What makes this setup truly unique is that the heart of the system is a compact mini PC connected to the GPU via
a PCIe dock delivering massive performance in a surprisingly small footprint.

- GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti
- CUDA cores: 8960
- Graphics clock: 2588 MHz
- Memory data rate: 28.00 Gbps
- Memory interface: 256-bit
- Memory bandwidth: 896.064 GB/s
- Total available graphics memory: 65245 MB

- Bus: PCI Express x8
- Display (1): Samsung Odyssey G93SC
- Resolution: 5120 x 1440
- Refresh rate: 240 Hz
- Desktop color depth: Highest (32-bit)
Paired with the setup is my all-time favorite keyboard: the Happy Hacking Keyboard (HHKB) Professional Hybrid Type S topre switches, compact layout, pure bliss.
For the mouse, I run the Zowie EC2-DW 4K wireless, which delivers incredibly satisfying clicky feedback and precision. Audio duties are handled by the Audeze
Maxwell headset whcih offer phenomenal sound and comfort for long sessions. And last but not least the Samsung Odysey G9 OLED driving the front end of things.
Laptop Setup
For daily work in networking, VoIP, and cybersecurity, I'm running Linux on my go to machine whcih is a System76 laptop running Pop!_OS,
offering a rock-solid, encrypted environment that's fast and distraction free.
Laptop Specs:
