About Me
I’ve been building things on and around the web since I was a kid, long before I knew what any of it really meant. Before I knew what HTML was, I was 10 years old mimicking application logins by hyperlinking local Microsoft Word documents together.
By the time I was 14, I was setting up free Freenom .ga domains and 000webhost servers to get my first sites online. At the time, my hosting provider emailed me my control panel password in plaintext.
Not long after, that provider was part of a data breach that exposed millions of plaintext passwords.
Around that same period, I had started experimenting with Cloudflare because I was trying to understand how to protect and route the domains I was running. Looking back, that was when I first started connecting the dots between websites, DNS, hosting, and security.
Today, my focus is network security and the systems behind it. I still approach projects the same way, but I take the time to write everything out as I go so I understand what I built and can come back to it later.
Outside of tech, I spend a lot of time running and staying active. It helps me stay consistent and clear my head when I’m deep into a project. I’m working toward running a marathon.
